The Coral release new track After The Fair

After The Fair is available today on New Music Friday to stream and download as an instant grat for those who pre-order the new Coral album Move Through The Dawn which is out on August 10th.

The album is being released with an accompanying book from keyboard player Nick Power which tells the behind-the-scenes story of their time on the road with previous record Distance Inbetween. “There are moments on a tour when things suddenly become crystal clear,” an extract reads.

“You’ll be ghosting down a strip of tarmac somewhere in the early hours, half asleep, and it’ll hit you collectively, like some shared hallucination.”

“On a motorway between Leeds and Newcastle, we’re talking about production for the next album. It’s about two o’clock in the morning and we’ve just passed the Angel of the North, the huge iron siren and pagan-like gateway to the Tyneside area. Seeing something that mysterious can bring about a change in the way you think, if you know what I mean.”
