Hayden Thorpe has kept the solo material flowing with the release of a brand new song entitled Full Beam, recorded during the sessions for his debut album Diviner.
“Full Beam was the final track to emerge from the Diviner sessions, featuring drums from Stella Mozgowa, backing vocals from Josephine Stephenson and an outrageous saxophone performance from Matana Roberts,” Thorpe remembers.
“It was designed to be a moment of ecstatic release from the brooding songs that preceded it and as serves a calling card for what is to come.”
Thorpe has also detailed his first solo tour which will take him to North America, Europe and the UK during a few hectic early winter weeks.
