Glasgow based rock band Dead Pony have released their new single, “About Love.” The Scottish band have released three previous singles in 2023 so far as well as embarking on a sell out tour.

Riding high on a wave of recent success, Dead Pony have returned with another romping single that is sure to help see their star continue to rise. Described by the band as a ballad of lost love, “About Love” may tackle hard hitting topics, but sonically the song offers an upbeat, anthemic tone that will go over nicely during the band’s live performances.

Speaking about the new single, Front woman Anna Shields said, “It’s a story of admiring someone and coming to the realisation that they aren’t the person who you thought they were. It’s frantically trying to piece together broken fragments of yourself and of them, to try and mend what is now lost. Sometimes trust can be fixed but other times it is broken for good. About Love tells the tale of growing up in love and the complications that arise when one of you changes.”

After releasing hit single “Cobra,” Dead Pony have been going from strength to strength, supporting Chvrches on their summer tour and appearances at festivals including 2000trees and Y Not. The band have also embarked on their own headlining tour in September along with another supporting tour with Funeral For A Friend.

As Dead Pony begin to gather a formidable fan base and grab the attention of various music critics and publications, a debut album is certainly on the cards but, as yet, remains a bit of a mystery as to when it will be released. It also remains to be seen whether any of the new singles will make up a part of the record or if the album will feature completely new music.

Speaking in an interview, Shields shed some light on the band’s intentions for an album, explaining, “We are currently releasing some singles that we recorded through the year, ‘MK Nothing’ and ‘MANA’ as part of an album, but we’re still keeping it kind of secret as to when the album is coming out, and what exactly is going to be on the album, and what it’s called. The new singles that you’ve heard are building up to the album.”

Dead Pony have certainly been enjoying a meteoric rise, with past singles “Cobra,” “Mana” and “MK Nothing” bringing the band many headlines and attention. Fans of Dead Pony will eagerly be anticipating a full length from one of the UK’s most promising acts.
