Liberation Records are delighted to present Mansionair’s brand new single – ‘Astronaut (Something About Your Love)’. In a double barrel of news, the band has today also announced an East Coast tour is set for December. Tickets are on sale now!
Produced by the band and premiering overnight on Beats 1, the single (mixed by Eric J – Flume, Nick Murphy) is a genre-splitting shot from the soul; as playful as it is a sincere exploration of loneliness and distant affections.
Producer and guitarist Lachlan Bostock describes the creation of the beginning suite of otherworldly harmonics:
“We shoved a microphone deep inside a piano and recorded all the atmospheric noises that came out. Like what I imagined an astronaut felt as if he was looking back at Earth.”
At the tail end of 2016, Mansionair released bristling track ‘Easier’, which has now reached over 15 million streams, a testament to the fan-base they’ve created in such a short period of time. While working on their latest offering, the band collaborated with Seattle duo Odesza on their lead single ‘Line Of Sight’, which has since climbed Billboard’s Alternative and Dance/Electronic charts and has amassed millions of streams.
Over the past few years Mansionair has been praised for their mesmerizing and genre-defying music from tastemakers including The Fader, Stereogum, NME, The Guardian, BBC Radio 1 and Pigeons and Planes, who declared the band an “Act to Watch.” Soon after the band’s first release they were handpicked by CHVRCHES to open their headline tour across the USA, UK, and Europe. Mansionair went on to join Alt-J, Florence & The Machine and The Rubens on the road, most recently wrapping up a tour with London Grammar.
The juxtaposition between singer Jack Froggatt’s intimate vocal delivery and the geographic stretch of Mansionair’s production makes them one of the country’s most intriguing bands. Watching it come to life live on stage really is a wonder to behold. Don’t miss them this December on the East Coast
