George Ezra shares new single 'Green Green Grass'

With his highly-anticipated new album arriving in the coming months, George Ezra has now dropped the next cut to be lifted from his forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Green Green Grass' follows on from the previously shared lead track 'Anyone For You (Tiger Lily)' in previewing his third LP 'Gold Rush Kid', which is out on the 10th June via Columbia Records.

Speaking about the new offering, he said, "I was on holiday in St Lucia with a few friends at Christmas 2018, with two of my closest mates from home. We were in this beach bar, drinking homemade rum punch and Piton, the local lager, flip-flopping between the two, pissing about with three local guys who worked there. And this music started up, three streets back from the sea.

"After about half an hour, I had to go see what it was. And there was a street party going on, with three different sound systems, people cooking in the street. I asked a woman what was going on and she told me it was a funeral – for three people. They were celebrating three lives! I thought: that is not how we do this at home. And it’s really beautiful."
