Our new single, ‘When Jones’ Ale Was New’, is released today. It’s the first single from our forthcoming album ‘We Are People’, due for release on 20th September and available to pre-order now.

 

 

It’s the feel good song of the summer… if that summer was 1524! We’ve breathed new life into this traditional drinking song by fusing it with a pop-punk sound.  It evokes the feeling of long hazy days sitting in the sun and sharing a few beers with friends. The song is paired with a polka written by Laura.

 

The song was a favourite of “pace-eggers” (an Easter-time tradition, similar to mumming, where people went from house to house singing songs and begging for eggs) and we pay homage to the pace-egging routes of the song in the music video, with a surreal interpretation of a traditional pace-egging costume.

 

‘When Jones’ Ale Was New’ is now available to stream everywhere:

• Spotify >>
• Apple Music >>
• Amazon Music >>
• Deezer >>
• Soundcloud >>
• Bandcamp >>
• Watch on YouTube >>

 

‘When Jones’ Ale Was New’ will be followed by a second single ‘England Bound’ on 30th August before the album is released on 20th September. The album’s release will be accompanied by a tour. Find a full list of dates here.
