The New Fidelity is an American mod power pop band founded in Long Beach, CA in 2005. The New Fidelity are heavily influenced by 60's pop and rock, and most of their music is steeped in two three and four part harmony. Bands like early Beatles, The Zombies, The Who and The Beach Boys are obvious influences as well as 80's mod revival and jangle pop.

The New Fidelity are listed on 2 annual "Hot 100" unsigned bands of the nationally published Music Connection Magazine lists, and are mentioned on National Public Radio's Off Ramp by KROQ-FM Los Angeles Deejay Rodney Bingenheimer as a favorite contemporary band.[1] Festival performances include 3 appearances at the International Pop Overthrow Festival[2], and The High Rollers International Scooter Rally[3], held annually in Las Vegas Nevada for vintage Vespa and Lambretta aficionados who enjoy the 60's style of music similar to The New Fidelity. Their 3 releases are distributed by Not Lame Recordings in Fort Collins Colorado.
