They will perform the track, and another brand new song, on Later with Jools Holland this evening and this Friday.
With two top 10 albums already under their belt, Oxford five-piece Foals prepare to return with their third and most exhilarating album yet. The new album is titled ‘Holy Fire’ and is due for UK release Feb 11th 2013.
