The track resonates with the timeless spirit of the era while delivering a modern twist. 4. **“I Still Dream You”** is recorded at Renegade Nation studio in NYC, and written, arranged and produced by Stevie Van Zandt. Van Zandt recalls, “The Cocktail Slippers sent me a song they ́d been working on for a while but couldn’t quite unlock its mystery. Every song has one. I dug the sexy vibrations of it and started exploring, intending to just solve the puzzle. But sometimes songs just want to write themselves. I ended up taking it in a different direction and rewrote the whole thing. And really – not because the song wasn’t good enough, you’ll hear great ones all over the album, but because the Cocktail Slippers relentlessly inspire me!” 5. **“Jungle”** is recorded at Renegade Studios in NYC, written by Stevie Van Zandt and Cocktail Slippers and produced by Stevie Van Zandt. “Jungle” captures the energy and passion that define Cocktail Slippers’ signature sound. The band’s extraordinary musicianship and undeniable chemistry shine through every note, promising an immersive listening experience that will reverberate with rock enthusiasts worldwide. Fun fact: Everyone that was in the studio that day joined the band in doing the handclaps you hear in the beginning and at the end of the song, including Stevie himself and the guy making a documentary about him. In addition to the EP, Cocktail Slippers have released **“The Renegade Sessions,”** a 7-inch vinyl single featuring “I Still Dream You” written by Stevie Van Zandt on the A-side and “Jungle” on the B-side. Recorded in New York City in November 2023, arranged and produced by Stevie Van Zandt, co-produced, recorded and mixed by Geoff Sanoff and co-produced by Marc Ribler. The 7″ will be available exclusively at Cocktail Slippers shows.

One of the first bands Stevie Van Zandt signed to Wicked Cool Records, Cocktail Slippers have earned acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone, which raved, “In full hosanna, Cocktail Slippers sound a lot like the Go-Go´s but with gats instead of L.A. cheer, and a mule kick in their high heels. It´s all retro action but written and detonated with the study and delight of modern rock & roll women in constant touch with their inner filly.” **Social Media:** [Website](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66184.1.73cbb4fdf5963277925794c232f0f2a2) |  [Facebook](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66185.1.f6d6548ad30421284905ec855955cede) | [Instagram](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66186.1.8a4cf459dfa21cb614479984f90a3291) | [TikTok](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66187.1.ac4ddbafffed11e88b149e258cf5787e) | [Youtube](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66188.1.76540f97f4526e3df7b9774ef22fb08a) [⌊Wicked Cool Records⌉⌊Wicked Cool Records⌉[ [**Website**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66190.1.39c9b4bdb2f1a01deec91593ddeef0a3) | [**Facebook**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66191.1.850678f96ffc1b762362068d641c8f68) | [**Instagram**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66192.1.aea50061579e64d617a28cd498d18719) | [**Twitter**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66193.1.247e32f098ec764f4d87916312e52eaf) | [**TikTok**](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/www.tiktok.com/@wickedcoolrecords) | [**Youtube**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=25642449.66194.1.7cfa14245d3c0e4571573a0a7c67ae15) [⌊Earshot Media⌉⌊Earshot Media⌉[ ### Share this: * [ Facebook ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=facebook) * [ X ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=x) * [ Email ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Norwegian%20Rock%20Sensation%20COCKTAIL%20SLIPPERS%20Release%20EP%20%27Talking%20About%20Love%27%20and%20Single%20%22The%20Renegade%20Sessions%22%20on%20June%2028th&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nyrdcast.com%2Fnorwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th%2F&share=email) * [ LinkedIn ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=linkedin) * [ Mastodon ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=mastodon) * [ Nextdoor ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=nextdoor) * [ Pinterest ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=pinterest) * [ Reddit ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=reddit) * [ Tumblr ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/norwegian-rock-sensation-cocktail-slippers-release-ep-talking-about-love-and-single-the-renegade-sessions-on-june-28th/?share=tumblr) ### Like this: Like Loading… ### _Related_
