Formation share new single, ‘Hangin’
London duo’s piercing funk gets a new spin.
Exciting London duo Formation have unveiled their percussive blast of a new single, ‘Hangin’.
Following on from the ‘Young Ones’ EP, the Ritson brothers are giving a new spin to their rave-era dance pop. The track documents a journey from dull office boredom to all-out party, where a character in a “three-piece suit” decides he “can’t take it anymore” and seeks instant escape.
Formation are playing a run of festival shows this summer, including Field Day and Latitude. Check out their full schedule below.
