News Gently Tender announce debut album, ‘Take Hold Of Your Promise!’

It’s out in August.
Gently Tender have announced their debut album.
The outfit - which features a handful of ex Palma Violets and The Big Moon’s Celia Archer - will release ‘Take Hold Of Your Promise!’ On 26th August.
The news comes alongside new track ‘Love All The Population’.
This song was written in the first lockdown - like lots of people I had spent many hours reflecting on the togetherness of our existence pre-pandemic,” explains vocalist Sam Fryer. “I was thinking a lot about the now-empty spaces - empty music venues particularly - not only closing because of the pandemic! So this song was a bit of a lament to those.”
The group support The Big Moon in September, then headline London’s Omeara on 14th November.
