Gruff Rhys announces new album with title-track "Pang!"
Gruff Rhys has announced his new record Pang!, alongside revealing the Welsh language title-track.
"Pang!" is the lead single from Gruff Rhys' Pang! record, which also features the Muzi remix of his 2018 single "Bae Bae Bae".
The new single was recorded in Cardiff, and produced by Muzi in Cardiff and Johannesburg. It features Kliph Scurlock on drums, Gavin Fitzjohn on bass, and engineer Kris Jenkins on flute and percussion.
Speaking about the single, Rhys explains, ""Pang!" is a Welsh language song with an English title. It started life as a folk reel and soon expanded into a "list" song, listing various reasons for pangs; hunger, regret, twitter, pain, bad design etc. Using the English word pang in a Welsh language track may appear weird but I suppose it’s like using the French word "Magazine" in an English song. In that it’s slightly pretentious but completely acceptable."
