GUM releases "Expanding Blue" as his first single for King Gizzard’s p(doom) label
GUM – AKA Jay Watson, member of Pond and touring member of Tame Impala – has returned with the release of new single, "Expanding Blue".
Talking about the track, Jay Watson said: "‘Expanding Blue’ starts out as a jazz inspired meditation, and turns into something spiritual for me, like a lost gospel soul record or something." The self-produced single is GUM’s first new material since the release of his 2023 album, Saturnia.
The track is his first for King Gizzard’s p(doom) records under the GUM moniker following his 2024 collaboration with Gizzard’s Ambrose Kenny-Smith on the album Ill Times.
Ambrose Keny-Smith of King Gizzard added about the release of this first standalone GUM track on p(doom): "Welcome back to the p(doom) fam my man Gumby! He’s done it again. Another stellar release from Freo’s finest."
"Expanding Blue" is out now via p(doom).
