Gently Tender deliver new single 'Sunlight In Motion'

With their highly-anticipated debut album landing in the coming months, Gently Tender have now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from their forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Sunlight In Motion' follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Love All The Population' and 'Dead Is Dead' in previewing their first LP 'Take Hold Of Your Promise!', which is out on the 26th August via So Young Records.

Speaking about the new offering, vocalist Sam Fryer said, “This song is about self-reflection - ‘Sunlight catch a grip to your motion’ - I’m talking about when you are suddenly caught in a moment and you feel able to reflect on your life, and feel nostalgic for it, Like a DeJaVu that puts your life in perspective.

"That perspective shift and reflection - being able to observe from the outside. It’s also about how you’re going to move forward. Reflecting on yourself like an outer body experience - taking the emotion out and being able to observe and evolve as a person.

"It’s also about celebrating yourself and putting difficulties into context and learning from them as experiences. Putting things like being kind to yourself into practice. This is why we are called Gently Tender. Gently Tender is a mantra and reminder of how to treat yourself with kindness, love and compassion.”
