Man & The Echo share the video to new single ‘Life On An Island’, the latest track from their new album, ‘Men of The Moment’ which is out on Still Nil Nil Records on 2nd August.

‘Life On An Island’ is a synth and percussion led vibe about a character who has worked his whole life but feels trapped and is worries he might have frittered his life away.

“It’s about the circumstances that make someone snap, the circumstances that lead to an event like Brexit, or Trump getting elected.”

New album – ‘Men of the Moment’ – has had some attenton from BBC 6 Music and the band were also thrilled to get viral artist Cold War Steve to produce the album artwork. Pretty cool.

Norther Ireland born. Sheffield based. I listen to music on the train (and other places) and like to talk about it with like-minded souls. There is no guilty pleasure around these here parts. All music pleasure is guilt free.
