Bear's Den have unveiled a new single, Auld Wives.
The track will feature on their sophomore album, ‘Red Earth & Pouring Rain', which is set to arrive on July 22 through Communion and follow up their 2014 debut, ‘Islands’. Discussing the song, which you can listen to below, singer and guitarist Andrew Davie said:
“Where my grandparents live in Scotland, and where my mum grew up, there’s this cottage I used to go to write. It’s always been a bit of an escape for me but also reminds me a lot of growing up, which has always been a trigger for me with songwriting. Nearby there’s three rocks called the Auld Wives Lifts. No one knows how they got there, and there are faces carved into the rocks. There’s all sorts of folk tales around them, that have stayed with me growing up. The song is about my grandad who lived near there. He developed Alzheimer’s in his old age. Knowing someone, and them not knowing you any more, is a difficult thing to go through. Auld Wives became this way of talking about it, of venting about that feeling, and make more sense to me.”
Bear's Den will hit the road this autumn for a UK tour, making stops in Brighton, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Norwich, London and Bristol in early November. Tickets are on sale now.
