Max Pope returns with new single 'Automatic'

Following on from the release of his highly-praised 'In Limbo' EP last year, Max Pope has now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Automatic' was produced by the ever-impressive Tom Misch, and precedes news of his debut studio album, which is set to arrive in the near future.

Speaking about the new offering, Max said, "Working with Tom really helped me find my voice. I’ve always been the guy sitting there with a guitar and can’t think unless I’ve got one in my hand. Chord arrangements is usually a big part of what I do but with Tom, I hardly touched the guitar because I’m so inspired by the way he plays. I just focussed on building a narrative and forming the song - which is my favourite part of the writing process".

While Tom Misch added, "Working on Automatic with Max was a lot of fun.. I enjoy producing for other people sometimes and I think Max has a very unique voice and style... We’ve found some common ground influence wise and we channelled some of that in this track. It’s also good to hear Max singing in that lower register cos it sounds great!".
