Bombay Bicycle Club have released a new single, Willow.
Led by prominent percussion and assisted by the dulcet backing vocals of Lucy Rose, the indie-pop song will feature on the London quartet's new four-track EP, 'Fantasies', which is due out on digitally on February 23.
The release is also available as a limited 10" vinyl, which fans can pick up on the band's current UK and Ireland tour, through their website or at a number of independent record stores.
The EP also includes songs with Rae Morris, Liz Lawrence and Matilda Mann, who contributed to the previously shared track Fantasneeze. The band said:
"When we decided to hold Fantasneeze back for its own release after the album, we kept working and finished off three other songs in short order. We think of this as a Bombay and friends release because each song has a good friend of the band singing on it (Lucy Rose, Rae Morris, Liz Lawrence, Matilda Mann).
"Some are old friends with long-term, close associations to the band (Lucy Rose for instance) while Matilda Mann is a newer collaborator (having contacted Jack to do some co-writing initially a couple years ago). It’s also very much a continuation of 'My Big Day' as it was recorded around the same time and mixed by Dave Fridmann."
The band are currently touring in support of their sixth studio album, 'My Big Day', which was released back in October. The trek continues with a show in Birmingham tonight (February 2).
In the spring, they'll head across North America, before a huge concert at London’s Alexandra Palace Park on July 12. They'll also appear at Yorkshire's Deer Shed Festival and Tramlines in Sheffield this summer.
