BIG SPECIAL link up with John Grant on new single, "STAY DOWN, LAZARUS"
BIG SPECIAL and John Grant have linked up for their new collaborative single release, "STAY DOWN, LAZARUS", which follows their debut album, POSTINDUSTRIAL HOMETOWN BLUES.
Lead singer Joe Hicklin says: “Stay Down, Lazarus is just a big moan about the social promise of elevation and rising up, that doesn’t really exist for most people. It was actually the first song written for BIG SPECIAL, but it didn’t make our debut album. We always felt it needed something more, so we took a shot in the dark and asked John Grant, a major influence of ours, to have a crack at it with us. We are proper chuffed he wanted to get involved and still pinching ourselves”.
John Grant will also be bringing BIG SPECIAL out on tour with him through the UK and Europe this winter, before the band wraps up their year with more headline shows in the Europe, India, Thailand and Australia. They will also headline a London show at the O2 Forum on 29 March 2025.
"STAY DOWN, LAZARUS" is out now. For more information on their live dates, visit bigspecial.co.uk.
