English Teacher unveil new single 'Wallace'

After impressing so many with their brilliant effort 'R&B' earlier this year, Leeds-based outfit English Teacher are back once again with their latest release.

The new single 'Wallace' acts as the b-side to their most recent offering, and sees them continue the bold and pulsing direction they are establishing for themselves.

Speaking about the new track, they said, “‘Wallace’ is an apocalyptic monologue about what happens when people listen to Wallace Hartley, the band-leader of the Titanic, as a distraction to the sinking of the ship. Born in my hometown, his name is stretched across the door of our local Wetherspoons - thinking about the irony of this got me wrapped up in how the metaphor perfectly expressed my feelings towards the political leanings of the area and the general rise of the right-wing in modern England.”
