Catfish and the Bottlemen have announced their new album, The Balance, will be released on April 26 via Capitol Records. The album features the new single “Longshot,” which was released on January 8. View the video below.
“We loved living in the same place,” says Van McCann, vocalist, on their 12 month retreat to write the album. “We were staying there the whole time, so we were waking up around each other and working until we needed to go to bed. [Producer] Jacknife was always up. He was the first up and the last awake. It’s good when you’re completely engulfed in recording in a place like that, living together, because every day and all day it was about the songs. We had fun too; they were the funniest album sessions we’ve done.”
The eleven-track album features “Longshot,” which has garnered over six million streams since its release two weeks ago, as well as fan-favorite “Fluctuate.” Fans will be able to hear these songs live on the band’s upcoming U.S. headline tour, which kicks off March 12.
