Irish-born but London-based duo St. Francis Hotel recently linked with 30th Century Records, the imprint overseen by none other than Danger Mouse.
Pushing ahead, the pair’s subtle, enticing sound matches soulful psychedelia to something more evocative, almost bittersweet.
New track ‘Collide’ feature...
Every little thing I did
Haunts me
No, I could have been a man instead
I’m running
Seizing a heart
From the look in your eyes
The thorn in my side
Thorn in my side
[Chorus]
Oh, I never thought a single moment in a day could change
My life
My life
Oh, everybody miss a thing that I don’t want to think
‘Cause if I turned around and not know
Collide
Collide
It’s the tallest of the mean, mean world
Tempt you
From the powers back in my whole realms
I choose
I choose
[Chorus]
Oh, I never thought a single moment in a day could change
My life
My life
Oh, everybody miss a thing that I don’t want to think
‘Cause if I turned around and not know
How many times, I tried to hide
Knowing the cross
If I never tried
I leave behind
The thorn in my side
Oh no
Oh no
‘Cause if I turned around and not know
Collide
Collide
Collide
Collide
