Two Door Cinema Club Announce New Album ‘Beacon’

Two Door Cinema Club have announced that they will release their brand new album ‘Beacon’ on the 3rd September through Kitsuné.

The trio - Alex Trimble, Kevin Baird and Sam Halliday - spent April in Los Angeles recording with Mr Jacknife Lee, the man behind the likes of Bloc Party, U2 and REM, for the follow-up to their platinum-selling debut ‘Tourist History’.

Speaking of the experience of working with Lee, Trimble comments, ‘Working with Jacknife Lee was a joy and a pleasure. He shared our goals and played a huge part in putting the pieces together in the right way. This is an exciting time for us and we can’t wait to share the songs with everyone.’

And what do we expect from ‘Beacon’ itself? ”Beacon is a much more intimate record than our first, but at the same time, it’s much bigger and more inclusive. Trying to find that balance has been our goal for a long time and this record takes us one step closer to the band we’ve dreamt of becoming.’
