Amy Meredith are thrilled to unveil the video for their brand new single ‘Pick Up Your Tricks’. Shot in Sydney’s Surry Hills last month, the video features two rival crews of school kids led by ‘Amy’ and ‘Meredith’, running an underground Blue Babies cartel in and around their school. Enlisting the talents of young Sydney-based director Benn Jae, the video draws viewers into an engaging narrative and band performance.
Having recently inked an international management deal with Vector Management, and fresh from an October East Coast run of shows with global superstars Good Charlotte, the Sydney five-piece are on a roll both in Australia and in the US. Vector Management, whose roster includes Kings Of Leon and Ke$ha among others, will work towards breaking the band in the American market and around the world in 2012.
Amy Meredith’s new tune ‘Pick Up Your Tricks’ showcases a new direction for the band; it’s a hook-heavy, synth-inspired pumping summer tune that was produced by Matt Hales (Aqualung) and mixed by Rich Costey (Foster The People).
An online campaign featuring the likes of Danny Clayton, Maude Garrett and Tyler Atkins is building hits day on day; It’s a call to action for Amy Meredith fans, encouraging them to get involved and ‘Pick Up Your Tricks’.

The band are heading back to LA in January to finish the album with Tim Pagnotta, who most recently co-wrote and produced the forthcoming Neon Trees record. Amy Meredith’s as yet untitled record will be released in May 2012.
