Folly Group are back with a new single, ‘Strange Neighbour’.
Their first new material since early last year, the release follows on from debut EP ‘Awake And Hungry’ and its follow-up, ‘Human And Kind’.
Sean Harper (drums/vocals) comments: “Strange Neighbour walks a couple of related lines at once. Louis’s verses and choruses are an ode to community as it dematerialises. Urban areas become un-neighbourly as spiraling rents force most people our age to move annually, and that’s if they’re lucky. At the same time, when it was being written, we had a sense that some of the music our peers were making came from a sneering, holier-than-thou place, voyeuristically skewing strangers’ perspectives to misrepresent another point of view and make their own more righteous.
“So, “Strange Neighbour” is about recognising your own strangeness and that of your neighbours, because when two people from opposing walks of life meet, who’s normal?”
Check it out below, and catch the band on tour with Geese this September.
