NYC firestarters Bambara have announced a new mini-LP, Love Is On My Mind. A six-track project coming in February, you can hear 'Mythic Love' now and pick which date you'll go to see them on when they tour UK and Europe in 2022...

Bambara are exercising their Nick Cave muscles (all of us probably have some) on 'Mythic Love'. Not only is frontman Reid dressed rather like a Bad Seed in the song's accompanying video, but there's some of Cave's register on the vocals for the track too... Expect helpings of rock'n'roll drama à la Bambara too.

"In 'Mythic Love' we see the two protagonists of the record meet for the first time" vocalist and songwriter Reid Bateh explains. "There’s an immediate attraction that seems almost out of their control."
