The track comes as the first single from Everything But The Girl’s upcoming album, titled ‘Fuse’, the LP will be releasing April 21st and duo member Tracey Thorn discusses their return when she states:

 

Ironically the finished sound of the new album was the last thing on our mind when we started in March 2021. Of course, we were aware of the pressures of such a long-awaited comeback, so we tried to begin instead in a spirit of open-minded playfulness, uncertain of the direction, receptive to invention. – It was exciting. A natural dynamism developed. We spoke in short-hand, and little looks, and co-wrote instinctively. It became more than the sum of our two selves. It just became Everything But The Girl on its own.
