Dream Wife have announced their forthcoming new album, along with single 'Sports!' which was premiered as Annie Mac's Hottest Record In The World on BBC Radio One.
Lifted from 'So When You Gonna…', their follow up to their self-titled 2018 debut, due for release on July 3, the London trio continue to send out empowering messages for women through their songs.
"‘Sports!’ sits on multiple levels; of satire and celebration, of nonsense and common sense, of the body and the mind, of IRL and digital," they say. "The video simultaneously plays with and celebrates ‘sports’ through multiple levels of reality and non-reality; exploring the nonsense of sports, toying with the seriousness of competition and the rigidity of rules while also asserting how important it is to be in your body, the joy of being in a team, the purpose in doing something for the sake of doing it, the endorphins and the sweat.
"Playing sports is great if that’s for you but there are so many other ways to be physical, to be with your body. For us, more often than not, it’s the rock show. Rock n roll is an extreme sport and we’re a team."
