Jack Garratt delivers new single 'Better'

With his long-awaited new album set to arrive in the coming months, Jack Garratt has now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from his forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Better' was premiered on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show last night (20th April), and follows on from the previously shared lead track 'Time' in previewing his sophomore LP 'Love, Death & Dancing', which is set to arrive on the 12th June via Island Records. He has also released a new three-track bundle of songs lifted from his new collection, which can be streamed here.

Speaking about his new offering, he said, “‘Better’ is a dance song about the end of times. It’s a song about the claustrophobia some of us feel when confronted by daily reminders of how a change outside of our control is coming, and how we force ourselves into repetitive sequences of familiarity and nostalgia to feel safe again. It’s a distracting fable about self-awareness and futile escapism.”
