“Don’t Get Stuck (Proud Elephants)” is the latest single from instrumental set Wondervisions (Luaka Bop), the debut album from New Jersey’s Delicate Steve. The track premiered recently via Fader.com and is available as a free MP3 download now. Delicate Steve is also set to join Ra Ra Riot on tour this fall, kicking off October 26 in Washington, DC.

The video for “Don’t Get Stuck (Proud Elephants),” directed by filmaker and Delicate Steve keyboardist Mickey Sanchez, is also available now. The video features the five main members of Delicate Steve as well as a few friends, and was shot in Warwick, NY at a house the group rented during the summer of 2010 “with the intention of trying to duplicate the recording vibe the Red Hot Chili Peppers had during the making of Blood Sugar Sex Magik,” notes Steve Marion (aka Delicate Steve–he wrote, produced and played all instruments on Wondervisions).

Marion continues, “Instead of that, we ended up spending almost all of our time swimming in our lake or hiking the mountain on our 50 acres of property. The rest of our free time was spent making pizza dough from scratch with the help of the book ‘Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day.’ We also had a book club.” Check out the video and download the track at the links below.
