To celebrate the release of Good Love, the 2nd single lifted from his debut solo album Mix Tape, Spiderbait co-vocalist and percussive lynchpin Kram has just announced dates for his national Good Love tour. The tour kicks off with a performance at Splendour In The Grass Sunday July 26th.

Kram also recently teamed up with Quiksilver, the world's largest surf company, and one of Australia's most recognised musicians, to produce a cover of one of Punk Rock's most recognised songs, the infamous Blitzkrieg Bop as originally performed by the Ramones.

The collaboration is a continuation of a relationship that began earlier this year when Kram was invited to play at Quiksilver's "Pro Show" music festival on the Gold Coast and co-host the hugely popular "Backstage with Hoy" segments that featured on quiksilverpro.com.au during the first event on the 2009 Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) World Tour.

The video for the Blitzkrieg Bop cover stars, former world champion Aussie surfer Matt Hoy and other members of Quiksilver's pro surf team. Filmed over two days on Victoria's rugged South West coast, the clip was produced by Soup Kitchen films and has been described by director Toby Angwin as a hybrid blend of "Dog Town meets Mad Max".
