Opus Kink join forces with The New Eves on new song, "The Head Tree"
Opus Kink have released "The Head Tree," featuring The New Eves, the latest single from their upcoming debut album, The Sweet Goodbye.
"The Head Tree" sees the two Brighton bands come together to combine Opus Kink's jazz and country-inspired punk with The New Eves' folk-punk, self-described "Hagstone rock".
Speaking about the new song, vocalist and guitarist Angus Rogers says: “In 1685 Alice Molland was the last woman to be tried and hanged as a witch in England, strung up on a ‘HeadTree’ just outside of Exeter. Now, from her burial place underneath an Aldi carpark in the town of Heavitree, she summons the spirits of her fallen sisters-in-sin-Mary Trembles, Temperance Lloyd and Susannah Edwards-as well as, for some reason, the spirit of the Bee Gees, in order to tell her tale. Uttered through the coerced mouths of Opus Kink and The New Eves.”
The Sweet Goodbye is released on 31 July via So Recordings
