After an impressive 2018 with Hope Downs and its singles such as Talking Straight – a Live4ever Track Of The Year – Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever are back with a brand new track today.
In The Capital goes back to those Hope Downs sessions and is available now digitally, while a limited edition 7″ will follow on April 26th featuring a second A-side single, Read My Mind. “I first had the idea for the melody and some of the lyrics when I was swimming,” Fran Keaney remembers of In The Capital.
“It’s taken a while to finish the song, to make it feel like the initial feeling. I can’t neatly describe it, but something like connection despite distance. I was thinking about transience and water and death and big cities and fishing towns and moon river.”
A summer tour of Europe has also been detailed which will include UK gigs in Glasgow, Sheffield, Cardiff, Bedford, Birmingham and Reading, as well as appearances at the Latitude and Deer Shed festivals.
