Elbow return with new single 'Dexter & Sinister'

Following on from their much-loved 2017 studio album 'Little Fictions', Elbow have now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Dexter & Sinister' is a sprawling seven-minute-long release, and is set to be the band's first single to be released as a 10" one-sided single.

Speaking about the new cut, keyboardist and producer Craig Potter said, "We haven’t sat around and played like that in a long time. The looseness in the track definitely comes from us playing live in the room and, on the second part, we decided not to play to a click to really allow the tune to breathe.” While frontman Guy Garvey described it as, “A great, big, bewildered question dealing with my feelings on Brexit, the loss of family and friends and the general sense of disaffection you see all around at the moment.”
