Humour announce forthcoming debut album, Learning Greek

Glasgow's Humour have announced their forthcoming debut album, Learning Greek, alongside the release of new single, "Plagiarist".

Speaking of the track, vocalist Andreas Christoloudis said: "Plagiarist is about being a lyricist and having run out of ideas and inspiration. In the song, the character is under pressure to put words to music written by the band, and realises that he can’t even steal lines from his favourite books because he has already used them all. He fears being discovered as a fraud and being punished for it with death."

Learning Greek was not only inspired by frontman Christoloudis' decision to start learning the language but the very idea of "returning to oneself by actively doing something, like learning about your history, reconnecting with things that were important when you were younger. In my case, it was the things I shared with my dad: poetry, music and language.”

Alongside the album announcement, Humour have detailed their most extensive UK headline tour yet for November in support of Learning Greek, which follows EPs from the band – 2022's Pure Misery and 2023's A Small Crowd Gathered To Watch Me.

Tracklist:

  1. Neighbours

  3. Plagiarist
