VANCOUVER, B.C. (April 20, 2023) – New Jersey’s eccentric one-man band, Gene Wilder’s Vacation, is back with a bang, teaming up once again with the irrepressible actor/comedian Andy Dick, and devil blues rocker Reese Van Riper (Mint 400 Records) for their latest single “My Best Friend” – watch it here. This dynamic trio has created a music video that is as unconventional as it is rocking, for yet another single that continues the band’s path to defy musical conventions and captivate audiences with its unique and offbeat style.

After their successful collaboration on the single and music video for “I’m Not Better Than Anyone,” Gene Wilder’s Vacation and Andy Dick have doubled down on their creative partnership, this time adding the devilishly talented Reese Van Riper into the mix. The result is a musical concoction that is part genius, part madness, and completely unforgettable.

“Making music with Andy is like hanging out with your favorite cartoon,” says Gene Wilder’s Vacation. “I love it!”

The music video for “My Best Friend” is a visual feast for the senses, featuring live performances by Gene Wilder’s Vacation and cameo appearances by Andy Dick’s son Lucas Astrom and his wife, Sofia Astrom. Filmed in the heart of Los Angeles, the video is a whirlwind of comedic antics, electrifying music, and unexpected surprises that will leave audiences laughing and rocking in equal measure.

The collaboration with Andy Dick began when a friend of Gene sent him his music, and Andy Dick was instantly hooked. The two quickly struck up a creative partnership that has now evolved into a full album project, showcasing their mutual love for pushing musical boundaries and creating something truly unique.

With their unapologetically eccentric style and infectious sense of humor, Gene Wilder’s Vacation, Andy Dick, and Reese Van Riper are a musical force to be reckoned with. Fans can expect more surprises and adventures from this dynamic trio as they continue to push the envelope of what music can be.
