Banner PilotMinneapolis punks Banner Pilot have premiered the video for Modern Shakes, the lead single from their upcoming full length, Souvenirs. It features vintage footage of Minneapolis’ Gateway District from the 1950’s and vocalist Nick Johnson said this about the video:

“The footage was shot in the ’50s and ’60s by John Bacich, who owned several bars in what was called the Gateway District, old Minneapolis’ skid row…Before urban renewal it was home to a ton of seedy bars, pawn shops, flophouses and the interesting characters you see captured in his home movies. He passed away a few years ago and part of his legacy are these amazing images he preserved.”

Souvenir is out on April 15th via Fat Wreck Chords and you can check out the video for Modern Shakes, here.
