Wallflower have released a video for their new single Further Down, taken from their forthcoming debut album Teach Yourself To Swim.
“Everything that happens on this track is a perfect combination of everything this record is about and, ultimately, what this band is about ” says vocalist/guitarist Vini Moreira-Yeoell. “The lyrics to this song contain the album’s title, Teach Yourself To Swim. In the context of the track, it could mean one thing but when you take those words and say them out loud they start to take their own form and we all felt the phrase represented the album perfectly. One of the biggest things we hope people take away from this album is that none of us claim to have any answers to the questions being asked by the songs on the record. It’s about conversation and discourse and figuring out a little bit more about our own traits – both positive and negative. Sometimes it all gets a little overwhelming, that’s what this song is about.”
Teach Yourself To Swim is due for release on 5th June 2020, available to pre-order HERE.
Wallflower recently launched their Isolation Covers series, which features covers of Bon Iver‘s Hey Ma (HERE) and Coldplay‘s God Put A Smile Upon Your Face (HERE). All proceeds will go to mental health charity CALM during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The band have also released the first episode of their new video podcast, The Load In, which features a chat between the band and Kris Coombs-Roberts from Funeral For A Friend. Check it out HERE.
