Words: Ellie Ward
Gengahr are set for a busy few months ahead, starting off with the release of new single ‘Before Sunrise’.
The cut is taken from their forthcoming album, 'Where Wildness Grows', which is out on March 9 via Transgressive Records. The follow up to their much-acclaimed debut 'A Dream Outside', was produced by Neil Comber (Glass Animals, M.I.A, Songhoy Blues).
‘Before Sunrise’ follows ‘Carrion’ and ‘Mallory’, and sees the band in anthemic mode, with breezy melodies worked in around hypnotic guitar lines.
“'Before Sunrise' is a song that celebrates the relief and simplicity one can find lost in the night," says frontman Felix Bushe. "A clarity and single mindedness that doesn't exist in day to day life. A beautiful weightlessness that gradually dissolves as the sun comes up.”
The band are set to tour the record on their spring UK and European headline dates - including a milestone show at London’s Koko. Scroll down for dates.
