Isle Of Wight duo Champs are back with synthy new track "The Garden Is Overgrown", out now via Play It Again Sam.
Brothers Michael and David Champion are following up their 2015 LP Vamala - the new single is described as an "introduction to the next chapter". It's produced by Rick Rubin collaborator Sean Oakley.
"The heart of the song is about youth and all that growing up entails", Champs explain. "Through the passage of time, relationships and priorities ebb and flow along with flux and excitement and at times, the insecurities and disenchantment that one feels as life’s path is negotiated."
Champs have a heap of UK dates planned for the coming months. Find out more.
