Watch: Gaz Coombes releases new single ‘Long Live The Strange’

0

Gaz Coombes has released new single ‘Long Live the Strange’ from his forthcoming album ‘Turn the Car Around’, which arrives on 13th January 2023 via Hot Fruit Recordings / Virgin Music.

Coombes explains “This song was written as a celebration of the weird and wonderful and as a reminder to embrace that at all times”. The single stands as  an ode to how music has the power to bring people together.

He wrote it after taking his daughter Tiger to see Cavetown in Oxford in 2020.

“The show had a big impact on me,” he recalls. “It was what live performance is all about, connecting with an audience that consists of anybody and everybody who wants to be part of it, it’s fully inclusive and I found that quite powerful.”

‘Long Live the Strange’ is accompanied by a new video directed by Niall Trask. Playfully weaving in the songs’ themes of inclusion and acceptance, the beautifully shot video sees Coombes enlisting hundreds of friends to create something delightfully idiosyncratic to accompany this ode to the outsiders.

Recently Coombes announced a UK/EU headline tour for 2023 and also debuted music from the new album to a packed audience at London’s intimate Lafayette.
