Los Angeles–based sextet Fitz and the Tantrums, who produce a unique mixture of retro soul and pop music, have released its eponymous third album. Featuring the one-two punch of co-lead vocalists Michael Fitzpatrick (third from left above) and Noelle Scaggs (second from left), it’s a difficult band not to enjoy. Check out the official lyrics video for single, “HandClap,” below.
