Blue Bendy return after over a year with new single, "Poke"
Blue Bendy have returned with "Poke" as their first new music since the release of last year's debut album, So Medieval.
Marking the band’s first new music in 18 months – a period marked with a debut album release and a very near break up. Arthur Nolan explains that the lyrics for "Poke" were a reaction to “terrible hedonistic tendencies” and what happens when they meet “rural social reclusion.” He continues: “but for me it’s just like any fetishised nostalgic romance pop song. Who started the rumour of my insanity, and is a Facebook poke still hot ten years on?... This pretty much sums up our last 18 months perfectly. Maybe with a pinch of salt.”
"Poke" is out now.
