Last month, Super Furry Animals man Gruff Rhys announced details of his upcoming solo album American Interior. Now, he’s unveiled the title-track off that very record.

A multimedia project that combines music, film, book and app, American Interior is – as a press release states – a “multisensory experience telling the incredible true story of John Evans”.

A farmhand from Snowdonia, Evans travelled to America in 1792 to seek out a Welsh-speaking Native American tribe. Evans was an ancestor of Rhys, with the musician releasing American Interiorin his honour via Turnstile on 5 May. The film, book and app follows later that month.
