Tigercub journal "mental tug of war" on captivating new single, Beauty

Brighton-based trio Tigercub have made a storming return with new single Beauty – their first fresh music since 2017 EP Evolve Or Die.

Written at the start of lockdown number one, the band teamed up with Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse) on co-production and engineering duties and Tom Dalgety (Ghost, Royal Blood) on mixing for the captivating new track, which was also co-produced by frontman Jamie Stephen Hall.

Of the lyrical themes behind Beauty, Jamie reveals: "Don't say you think that you can feel it, because you don't. Feels like my personality is just a series of instinctive reactions based on past experiences, I feel disconnected to everyone else, no matter how hard people try to empathise, it just feels like they will never understand. Beauty is an attempt to journal that mental tug of war."

Beauty is out now via Blame Recordings, and "will be followed by further new material in the near future".
