W.H. Lung have released a brand new single ‘Symmetry’, ahead of a mini UK tour this November.
‘Symmetry’ takes you for a wander through their hometown of Manchester via scattered statues (Alan Turing, Friedrich Engels, Queen Victoria) whilst highlighting the massive homeless problem in the city. The band will donate their profits to Mustard Tree & Booth Centre, two local charities dedicated to the issue – listen below:
Singer Joseph E. says “There’s a statue of Alan Turing in a small park just off canal street in Manchester city centre. The statue has always struck me as odd, the face is quite childishly done and Turing seems to be offering his fruit to passers-by. People often sit with him and take pictures. The park is also regularly attended by the homeless community of Manchester. As visible a presence on the streets now as the statues of the great and famous.”
It’s lifted from W. H. Lung’s debut album Incidental Music which came out earlier this year and in my opinion is one of the sleeper records of the year.
The group will take Incidental Music on a victory lap around the following dates late November:
