Gotts Street Park share new single "Fuego"

25 July 2023, 12:45 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

Rising Leeds collective Gotts Street Park today share new single "Fuego" from their forthcoming debut album On The Inside.

Hot on the heels of recent single "Got To Be Good" which saw Gotts Street Park link up with Pip Millett, "Fuego" sees the trio return to their instrumental roots.

Acting as the song's aesthetic anchor, "Fuego" arrives alongside a visual directed by Kumara Vision offering a snapshot into the inner workings of the band through layered hazy studio moments.

Speaking on how the track came to be, Gotts Street Park explain, “"Fuego" started as a quick jam one afternoon during our June 2022 residency at Laylow. It was super hot in London that day, and we were sweating it out in the top floor studio. The riff came about as we were letting off steam in between writing and developing ideas with a vocalist. Josh hit on the bass riff first and it kinda flowed from there.”

“When we’re in a session writing with someone, we can end up playing the same chords round and round for a few hours - and ideas like Fuego come about when we’re letting loose and being super playful after being so restricted,” they add.

In 2021, the trio dropped Diego, a cinematic EP inspired by The Godfather and the works of Japanese auteur Yasujirō Ozu. After building legions of fans with tracks such as "Everything" featuring Devon-born singer Rosie Lowe and "Favourite Kind of Girl" featuring Swedish talent Flikka, Gotts Street Park are gearing up to release their debut album.

Gotts Street Park will play a run of UK live dates this November including a headline show at London’s Bush Hall and culminating in a hometown show at Leeds, Belgrave Hall.

"Fuego" is out now. Gotts Street Park's debut album, On The Inside, is due for release on 13 October via Blue Flowers.
