New Zealand dreampoppers Yumi Zouma have announced second record Willowbank and shared breezy lead single "December".

The new release will follow their full-length cover of Oasis' (What's The Story) Morning Glory? and last year's debut LP Yoncalla.

Willowbank was recorded over the festive period in the city of Christchurch's "semi-demolished CBD", an area severely damaged by a series of earthquakes.

"It was as though there was a brief pause in all of our lives and we finally felt like a band from New Zealand," says the group's Josh Burgess. "We were on home turf and creating from a place that felt fundamentally natural."

Tracklist:

Depths (Pt. I)
Persephone
December
Half Hour
Us, Together
Gabriel
Carnation
In Blue
Other People
A Memory
Ostra
Depths (Pt. II)

Willowbank is out 6 October via Cascine.
