Fake Laugh announces new LP with lead single "If You Don't Wanna Know"
Fake Laugh is back with news of his new album Dining Alone, as well as sharing the lead single "If You Don't Wanna Know".
"If You Don't Wanna Know" is Fake Laugh's first new single since November 2019's "Novelty Song", which will also feature on his new album.
Discussing the new single, Fake Laugh, aka Kamran Khan, says, "People spend a lot of time worrying about issues of all sorts of shapes and sizes. This song attempts to capture those serene moments, when none of your doubts or concerns are anywhere to be seen. I often feel at my most content and carefree when travelling somewhere, so the song is also a bit of an ode to being on the move. Musically, the song has some pretty surprising sounds, but I think elements like the orchestra-hits and classical guitar solos add to the vibe of the song. Was truly having some fun with this one, so I hope other people will too."
Dining Alone will be the first LP from Fake Laugh since his 2017 self-titled debut, and was recorded with producer Louis Milburn.
Khan says of the album's title, "The act of dining alone is either awkward and embarrassing or honourable and enjoyable, depending on who you ask."
