With a dynamic sound that wanders between the soulful and the volatile along with some vivid but heartfelt lyrics, it's a blast of classic Wedding Present but with the compulsion of a band always striving forwards rather than leaning on nostalgia.
"The band [drums, bass & guitars] was recorded at Studios La Fabrique [Saint-Rémy-De-Provence, France] by Andrew Scheps," says frontman David Gedge. "The singing was recorded at Crackle & Pop Studios [Seattle, Washington] by Paul Hiraga and Allan’s Cove Studios [Brighton, England] by Samuel Beer-Pearce. The track was mixed by Andrew Scheps."
As for the video, he added: "Our drummer Charles Layton set up his camera to film the band at Studios La Fabrique [Saint-Rémy-De-Provence, France] and Parr Street Studios [Liverpool, England] and he edited the footage for this video.”
The Wedding Present release Going, Going on 2 September.
