Having released one of Webcuts’ favourite albums of 2010, The Big Pink begin the new decade with another single, this time a reworking of album track “Velvet”, set for a full commercial release on February 15th.
Crystallising a love of digital noise combined with an incredible soulfulness “Velvet” was mixed by legendary producer Alan Moulder, and will be available on 12″ and digital download, featuring both a reworked version of “Velvet”, and a cover of the Otis Redding track “These Arms Of Mine”. Dig that, soul fans.
