Shura airs new single ‘White Light’
The 7-minute mega-song got its first spin as Annie Mac’s hottest record.
Shura has shared a new single, ‘White Light’. The track got its first airing as the Hottest Record on Annie Mac’s Radio 1 show.
A live staple at Shura’s live shows, it’s something of a curveball compared to ‘Touch’ or ‘Indecision.’ Things start out gutsy and punchy enough, but soon ‘White Light’ starts to drift off into intergalactic realms, sprawling over 7 minutes. While its still got straight-up pop goodness at the heart, it explores increasingly different terrain, too, and it’s Shura’s most experimental single yet.
At the weekend Shura plays DIY’s stage at Field Day, and on 17th September she’ll headline London’s Electric Brixton. She’s also got a rammed schedule of summer festivals and US dates ahead, with live dates as follows.
