Featuring Bobby Vylan’s daughters, nieces and nephews on backing vocals, the inspiring track fuses heavy bass lines, pummelling beats and fiery, punk energy. It marks their first new music since 2022’s standalone single The Delicate Nature and the ’Bob Vylan Presents: The Price Of Life’ LP. Bobby Vylan commented:
"As I see them growing and finding things they’re passionate about, it reminds me how important it is to continue having those childlike dreams of what we can accomplish in our lives.
"Growing up, dreaming of making some kind of positive change in the world or doing something you love wasn’t presented as a realistic option. Working class people are often too focused on getting by to have the luxury of "dreaming big", fortunately, I was delusional. And we want to encourage that "delusional" belief in oneself to accomplish whatever they want to in this world.
"We want to inspire people to achieve what they truly wish to achieve. We come from places and lifestyles that don’t encourage that. At a very young age, my path was thought to be set out for me. The school-to-prison pipeline that people talk about was something I was travelling through. I’m just fortunate that I was able to find another exit before I reached the other side of that pipeline. Other people I grew up with weren’t so lucky."
The London grime-punks will take their Viva La Vylan Tour to Belfast, Dublin, Cambridge, Leeds, Glasgow, Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham, Bristol, Southampton, Brighton and London during November.
