Gentlemen have released what’s likely the smoothest to land for quite a while – watch seductive new single ’Stray Rider’ below, first on Dork.
The band explain: “[It’s] kind of like if America’s original tan king George Hamilton stormed off the set of dynasty in a fit of rage, due to a contract or catering dispute and ended up walking the streets of the London suburbs with his Minder.
“[The video] culminates in a surreal Lynch-esque gathering where our very own tan king, Nigel Barber along with Minder, Roshan Singh are joined by Franz Ferdinand’s Nick McCarthy, channelling Agent Dale Cooper’s long lost twin brother.
“We recorded much of the album at Nick’s studio ‘Sausage Studios’, he also happens to be our neighbour so wanted to have a cameo/homage to the man himself…
“I’ve always thought he looked like agent Dale Cooper’s long list twin brother, so was kind of a bizarre dream come true… Maybe they can incorporate him into the new twin peaks season…?”
The Australian/UK collective will launch their new single in London live at Paper Dress Vintage in Hackney on 7th December.
