A new collaborative single from Earl Sweatshirt, MIKE and producer collective SURF GANG has arrived. 'Leadbelly' is taken from 'POMPEII // UTILITY', the trio's double album set for release on 3rd April through 10k/Tan Cressida/SURF GANG Records.
Split across two sides, the record places MIKE's material under the 'POMPEII' banner and Earl's under 'UTILITY', with production handled throughout by SURF GANG members Harrison, evilgiane, Elipropperr, and Flea Diamonds. All visual art associated with the project comes from sculptor Sharif Farrag, a childhood friend of Earl Sweatshirt. 'Leadbelly' follows the previously released 'Minty // Earth'.
Three secret shows in LA, NYC and London have been teased via the group's website ahead of their extensive Home on the Range tour, which launches on 9th June in Riverside.
