News: While She Sleeps Annouce UK Headline Tour in April
on January 25th, 2017 at 19:26Including at date at Talking Heads in Southampton
While She Sleeps have revealed the title track from their forthcoming third album “You Are We”. It’s a statement of intent that is indicative of the record as a whole. The full album is set for release on 21st April, 2017. The release of “You Are We” will be accompanied by a full UK tour in April with several shows already selling out. Support has also just been announced for the tour, as In Hearts Wake* and Fizzy Blood join the bill. See below for details.
With the help of their loyal fanbase, the band have funded the project through Pledge Music and are currently at 135% of their initial goal. Their Pledge page is updated constantly so stay tuned.
While She Sleeps have already revealed two tantalising tasters from “You Are We”, in the form of the anthemic “Hurricane”, and the visceral social commentary of “Civil Isolation”.
Made with Carl Bown, who also produced ëBrainwashedí, the songs that comprise ëYou Are Weí are full of as much force, focus and determination as ever. The songs within continue the bandís trajectory as one of the most inspiring, riotous and important voices in British music today, demonstrating both their continued musical evolution and their incisive social conscience. Yet while these are brutal anthems that paint a vivid picture of a post-Brexit Britain, they stand as both the most universal and most personal songs of the bandís career.
