Fresh from signing with the wonderful folk at Full Time Hobby, The Leisure Society are set to release their new single ‘Save It For Someone Who Cares’ on 28th September. The single, one of the many highlights from their debut album The Sleeper will be backed up by a handful of live dates across September and October – including an appearence at The End Of The Road Festival in Dorset.
The lush chamber pop, rich harmonies and orchestral flourishes contained within The Sleeper‘s eleven tracks has garnered much love from fans and critics alike – so much so that Full Time Hobby are re-releasing the album on October 5th as a 2 CD package. The bonus disc is called A Product Of The Ego Drain and contains a number of b-sides, demos and an un-released cover of Gary Numan’s ‘Cars’ – already a live favourite at Leisure Society shows.
