Sunflower Bean reveal ‘Human For’
Yet more evidence of a brilliant second album.
Hurtling ever-closer to the release of their second album ‘Twentytwo in Blue’ on 23rd March, Sunflower Bean have shared another newbie.
‘Human For’ - a gnarled tangle of yowling guitar, and a fearsome Julia Cumming (“Don’t need your pretension,” she announces) serves as yet more evidence that, along with previous singles ‘TwentyTwo’ and ‘I Was A Fool’, the record as a whole is shaping up to be a belter so far.
Sunflower Bean kick off their UK tour later this month - full dates and details here.
Listen to ‘Human For’ below.
