Indie rock band Sea Girls yesterday (January 21) shared an emotive new single, “Sleeping With You” an open, raw and honest track. The latest single sees a candid frontman in Henry Camamile with his head in America; he opens up in an acoustic-led song that exudes emotion and slowly builds into an explosive track that makes its mark on the listener and leaves nothing to the imagination. Sea Girls shared the news of their release via their social media pages.
Frontman Henry Camamile said of the track: “This song is about dreaming of your American ex-girlfriend instead of the girl you’re with right now. It’s a warning to not waste your time on me as my heart is still with another, so I’ll only let you down. It’s about not letting yourself love anyone else, although you know you should.” You can hear the song below.
The new track is taken from their upcoming new album Homesick produced by Larry Hibbitt and featuring co-production from Jacknife Lee, Jonny Coffer and Cass Lowe is set to be released on March 25 via Polydor. Fans can pre-order the new record here.
The Leicester-based band who were first formed in London in 2015 tackled many themes including mental health, drug use and regret on their breakthrough debut album, Open Your Head. The follow-up also looks to address equally stark themes. Camamile previously told NME. “I thought a lot about mortality and dying – what it means to be alive and how lucky we are. All the songs came after the pandemic started, so thematically it intensified things.”
“The whole environment felt way more intense. We missed quite a significant moment in our lives because we should have been out playing all of our first album shows. We’re moving on and we’re bringing something different. We could have made the first album again but we didn’t. We were really ruthless, we skimmed out any excess. It’s better than the first record and we feel so proud of it.”
Sea Girls are also set to go out on tour later the year with some European dates and a run of shows at UK indie record stores as well as some festival dates.
