Jamie Lenman will return with new material later this month.
The former Reuben frontman will release his new single, Mississippi, on January 23. It will be his first new offering since his debut solo album, 'Muscle Memory', which came out in 2013.
Lenman says of the new track:
"I've known (producer) Space for years but we never considered recording together until recently and I'm over the moon with the results. I came up with the basic idea when I was writing the last record but it fell between the two pillars of ultra heavy and super soft that I was going for, so I put it to the back of my mind and dug it out again when that was all over. Lyrically the song is about all the bad thoughts and feelings a person carries round with them and tries to cover up on a day to day basis, but if I get that little 'Mississippi' mantra in my head, which is a song my Dad used to sing, it brings them all back up. Watching him die is just one of these thoughts I can't get rid of but the phrase acts as a symbol for all of it."
