31st May sees the release of “Let’s Write A Book” the second single to be taken from the celebrated comeback album Field Music (Measure). David, the younger of the two brothers Brewis takes the lead with an inspired and surprising Northern funk work out, lyrically a call to arms for the perpetually apologetic and surely the most un-Field Music of Field Music songs yet.
The band will be touring around the UK from May onwards and will be making an appearance at a selection of festivals across the summer and beyond, including being selected by Richard Thompson for Meltdown, headlining at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, and handpicked by Belle and Sebastian for their Bowlie 2, ATP event this December.
