Django Django: New Single 'First Light'
Scottish four-piece Django Django burst onto the scene in 2012 with their triumphant self-titled debut record which was universally lavished with praise; "updated psychedelia that beguiles and delights" (The Guardian), "consistently mind-melting and often brilliant" (Q), "bursting with ideas" (Pitchfork) and "gloriously, unpredictably new" (Mojo). By December it had been shortlisted for the Mercury Prize and named one of the albums of the year by Rolling Stone and NME.
Today, we are thrilled to announce Django Django's return via a brand new single titled 'First Light' from their hugely exciting second album, which is currently receiving finishing touches and is due for release spring this year.
'First Light' opens with a huge, growling, wobbling bassline, slapping the listener in the face from the off, showing us Django Django are back and mean business. But it's not long before the trademark soaring harmonies make a grand entrance and interwoven with Django Django's unmistakable knack for a glorious ear-worm melody, this track is proof that the four piece are set to return in magnificent form.
Django Django have so far announced two warm up live dates in Leeds and Edinburgh, plus a main stage appearance at London's Field Day. Tickets are available from the band's website.

Ghostpoet: New Album And Tour Dates
Ghostpoet is pleased to announce news of his forthcoming album 'Shedding Skin' which will be released on 2nd March 2015 through Play It Again Sam.
The first fruits of the album, the track 'Off Peak Dreams' has already been premiered on Zane Lowe's Radio One show and sees Ghostpoet, London-based Obaro Ejimiwe moving on from the cathartic musings of 2013's 'Some Say I So I Say Light' album.
'Shedding Skin' is the manifestation of a new challenge, of fresh thinking, and a brave confident stride into previously uncharted waters.
Ten songs that embrace, unite and narrate observations that are designed to sit beside each other through bright peaks and dark shallows.Unlike his previous albums, 'Shedding Skin' was recorded with a traditional live set up with what has become his touring band; Joe Newman on guitar, bass player, John Calvert and John Blease on drums. The self-produced album also features guest vocals from Nadine Shah, Etta Bond, Melanie De Biasio, Lucy Rose and Maximo Park's Paul Smith, a collection that sets a new precedent as his very best work yet.
See his artist page for upcoming UK tour dates, all are sold out.

Deers: Change Their Name To Hinds
Madrid quartet Deers have been forced to change their name, and are now called Hinds, this is what they had to say:
"This is sadly the most official post we've ever made: We have to change our name,. We mean... they force us to. We received an email from a Canadian lawyer saying that our name created confusion with his band's name. And that name is not even Deers (LOL)."
"We tried our best, really, but we have no choice. So... Okay!!! Let's take this with a smile!!!! Deers are now... Hinds! And we are still the same people, we are even the same animal! Unbelievable!! We don't usually ask you guys for anything, but PLEASE you'd really make this easier for us if you shared this amazing info."
"Let's have a super 2015!! Hinds Sorry & Thank You See you on tour!!"
Hinds European tour begins today in Barcelona, see their artist page for full details.
