Manchester art pop group Dutch Uncles return with new single ‘Upsilon’, expected Tuesday May 19 via Memphis Industries.
“’Upsilon’ is about an overdramatic decision to quit Facebook or MySpace because, when you're young, you don't always have the capacity to see other people's lives (or the bits they want to show you at least) for what they really are,” explains lead vocalist Duncan Wallis. “This is also a result of the immense peer pressure to join in with the flirt of social media.”
'Upsilon' is backed by a new b-side, 'Realm', which is streaming exclusively via NME.com now.
You can listen to 'Upsilon' now via Soundcloud.
Dutch Uncles are set to perform an array of live shows including their biggest headline shows to date at the Ritz in Manchester this Friday (Friday March 27) and Koko in London on Friday April 10.
