Lightning Seeds announce first album in 13 years with new song "Sunshine"

15 June 2022, 12:13 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Lightning Seeds have shared news of their first album since 2009, See You In The Stars, and have released new song "Sunshine" to accompany the announcement.

"Sunshine" is the group's first new material since their 2009 album Four Winds, and is, according to lead vocalist and founder Ian Broudie, "about the sun being the source of life. I’ve had many dreams worrying about the future of an uncertain world, but then the sun shines and everything feels more positive and hopeful."

See You In The Stars was written and recorded in short intervals across the past three years.

Broudie added, "I always think music’s like attack and defence in football - or like politics – or like life. It’s about balance, and achieving that is the challenge for me."

Tracklist:

  1. Losing You
  2. Emily Smiles
  3. Green Eyes
  4. Great To Be Alive
  5. Sunshine
  6. Fit For Purpose
  7. Live To Love You
  8. Permanent Danger
  9. Walk Another Mile
  10. See You In The Stars
"Sunshine" is out now. Lightning Seeds' See You In The Stars album will arrive 14 October via BMG, and is available to pre-order now. They'll play London's O2 Shepherds Bush Empire on 4 November. Tickets go on general sale 10am BST on 22 June via lightningseeds.co.uk.
