The Tubs have released a third single from their upcoming album.
Following earlier tracks Stoop to Me and Who's Gonna Love You Now?, the melodic Now and Then serves up the band's signature jangle-pop guitars, with Lan McArdle sharing soulful lead vocals with Owen Williams, who said:
"This is another cuck–rock tune from the classic persona, this time about a period in which I fooled myself into thinking that dating someone very occasionally but indefinitely would be a workable arrangement."
The London-based Celtic four-piece, completed by Dan Lucas, Max Warren and Taylor Stewart, will release their third album, 'Hard Life', on September 11.
They'll appear at Green Man Festival in Brecon, Wales this weekend, with a UK tour following in September and October, and dates across North America and Europe in the diary for later in the autumn. Tickets are on sale now.
