Sad Boys Club announce debut album 'Lullabies From The Lightning Tree'

Following on from a flurry of highly-praised EP releases over the last few years, Sad Boys Club have now announced their plans for their debut studio album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'Lullabies From The Lightning Tree' is being previewed by the new lead single 'To Heal Without a Scar (Is a Waste Of a Good Wound)', and is set to be released on the 5th May via Modern Sky.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Jacob Wheldon said, "Sometimes I can have a hard time acknowledging life as reality, maybe I just don't want to. It often results in bad consequences for myself and those around me which I then use songs to somehow justify - some might argue that makes me a toxic narcissist (/man), I'm not sure I'd disagree. I'm working on it. A lot of this album is about working on whatever 'it' is. Getting better? It fell out at the end of a particularly bad period of writer's block and unblocked a majority of the writing on the record so feels like the only place to begin."
