Sunflower Bean have posted a video for Twentytwo, taken from their forthcoming new album Twentytwo In Blue.
Out later this month, the album is the band’s response to a year which they’ve described as, ‘extremely alarming, traumatic, and politically volatile’. “While writing this album, we often reflected back on the people we met while on tour,” they continue.
“We felt a strong kinship with the audiences that came to see us all over the country, and we wanted to write a song for them – something to capture the anxieties of an uncertain future. ‘Crisis Fest’ is less about politics and more about the power of us, the young people in this country.”
