"Blue Crow" is Thorpe's first new outing since teaming up with Hot Chip's Joe Goddard on "Unknown Song" in May.

Thorpe's three-track Aerial Songs EP will follow on from his 2019 debut solo LP Diviner. It was written and self-produced by Thorpe, with additional production from Nathan Jenkins - aka Bullion - Richard Formby and Fabian Prynn.

He says of the upcoming release, "Since my first broody teenage attempts to make music and beyond into gradually becoming an adult concerned with making decent music, I’ve found the prospect of making work about the Lake District an off-puttingly daunting task. I’ve always felt ill equipped to even nearly match the enchantment of being within the fells."

"I wouldn’t say I’m any better prepared now," Thorpe adds. "It might just be that I can perhaps more precisely distil the vital affirmation I feel in the mountains. Maybe it is that I am, by now, far enough away from the blast radius of a frustrated rural youth shit show to get clear headed and attempt it."
