Hot on the heels of the success of their debut EP, You’re Welcome, Lambrini Girls have today returned with their latest single, ‘God’s Country’, which premiered earlier this week with BBC 6Music’s Steve Lamacq.
The band explains that the track is a call-out to the UK’s shambles of a government:
‘God’s Country is our long, overdue call-out of the government and rise of the far right. We wrote this a few months back when the political landscape had reached a global boiling point. Great Britain. Think colonial, shit-hole, chunk of land. Thriving off unhinged nationalism, fed to us by the right red hand of unelected prime ministers. Despite this, we dare to call our country ‘Great’. So we ask you, ‘Are you sure?’
They continue, ’We could deep dive into inspirations and influences- but the songs about politics, not us. We hope the song speaks for itself. Rishi, Cameron, Cummings, Starmer – you’re all on our shit list.”
Already the two-piece have made a name for themselves with their unforgettable live performances, and fresh from setting the Moth Club quite literally on fire, they have today announced their biggest headline show to date, taking place at SCALA on June 13th.
Next month, the band are set to head to the States for the first time, performing at SXSW, and summer will see Lambrini Girls hit Wide Awake, YNot?, 2000 Trees, Reading and Leeds, and Manchester Psych Fest, and more.
