Smoke Fairies drop hypnotising new single "Elevator"

"Elevator" lands after September's "Disconnect" and August's "Out Of The Woods".

Discussing the new single, the duo's Katherine Blamire explains, "Someone said to me 'I never say goodbye in elevators' and then the doors rolled shut and I whizzed off upwards. The exchange spurred this song - there is no way of knowing what is going on in someone else’s mind and sometimes it just feels like you’re kind of lost, like being in an elevator stuck between floors, trying to figure them out."

She adds, "The song is set in Hollywood. How many weird exchanges, miscommunications and career breaks and falls must have taken place inside of Hollywood elevators?"

Darkness Brings The Wonders Home will be Smoke Fairies' first album since 2015's Wild Winter.

They recorded the new LP in Seattle with producer Phil Ek (The Black Angels, Fleet Foxes, The Shins).

Speaking about the record title, Jessica Davies of Smoke Fairies says, "Times of darkness are when people are often the most imaginative. It helps you to see all the wonders of the world you hadn’t noticed before - the things you’ve been blind to because you’ve been on autopilot for so long."
