Announcing that their debut EP ‘Awake and Hungry’ will be landing on 11th June via So Young Records, Folly Group are sharing brand new track ‘Sand Fight’ to get us hyped for what’s to come.

“‘Sand Fight’ was a total collaboration,” the band say. “We threw lyrical ideas and musical motifs at each other, and a song emerged that was, both lyrically and musically, a bit of an ode to childhood and being carefree. It became a collage made of symbols and signifiers of being young - both the positive experiences and myriad anxieties. It was one of the first tracks we wrote together, so to release it feels like a farewell to a formative sound and period in the same way.”

Check it out now below.
