The Magic Gang have decided to create love songs for fans to keep themselves busy during the coronavirus lockdown.

Earlier this month, The Magic Gang asked fans to submit a paragraph about their loved one - a family member, partner, or friend - and told fans that they would "have a go at writing a little number about them".

Yesterday (20 April), the group shared two love songs, and today (21 April), they've followed it up with another to Chenoa from Andrea.

The project is an endearing way to connect with fans on a personal level, and the first teasters of their love songs land after last week's rendition of the Arthur theme tune.

The band are currently preparing to release their second album. Death Of The Party will follow on from The Magic Gang's 2018 self-titled debut, and was recorded in Atlanta with producer Ben H. Allen (Deerhunter, Animal Collective, Gnarls Barkley).

So far they've shared two singles - "What Have You Got To Lose" and "Think".

The Magic Gang's Death Of The Party album will be released 15 May, and is available to pre-order now.
