New Single From Grass House

On June 27th, the excellent Grass House will release A Cradle, A Short Breath as a follow-up to last November’s single Lazy Bones.

In a conscious effort to avoid being type-cast in a dark or brooding vein, the song hints at the lighter side of the London group’s repertoire. Even so, it is still menacing enough to send most other indie bands screaming to their mummies.

The single precedes a third EP which is pencilled in for later this year and marks the start of a busy summer, with the band providing soundtracks to both a documentary and a feature film.

A Cradle, A Short Breath draws, for the most part, from a love of film and art for inspiration, as well as a continued admiration for the music of Lee Hazelwood, Jonathan Richman and Jacques Brel.

Have a listen, it’s great.
