Beloved British alternative pop heroes ELBOW report back with a new studio album. Little Fictions arrives on February 3, 2017, following 2014’s The Take Off and Landing of Everything and the 2015 EP Lost Worker Bee EP. The new studio album already marks the seventh one in the band’s history and also the first one following the departure of founding member and drummer Richard Jupp who left the group earlier last year.
So far, ELBOW have released three songs off Little Fictions. One is the string-driven first single Magnificent (She Says). You can witness it via a beautiful Joe Connor-directed music video below which gives the sweet song a more exotic setting. Another one comes in the form of the hypnotic All Disco which is also up for stream below. The latest teaser arrives in he form of the delicate Gentle Storm which comes with an undeniable groove and a video shot by Kevin Godley and inspired by the iconic video for GODLEY AND CREME’s seminal pop classic Cry.
The band is also on tour next spring but you need to hurry up to get some of the remaining tickets. Find the dates below and don’t forget to read our feature story in the 15th anniversary of their debut album Asleep In The Back from earlier this year, featuring a new interview with singer Guy Garvey.
