Skinny Pelembe announces second album with new song "Don't Be Another"
Skinny Pelembe has shared news of his upcoming second album Hardly The Same Snake, and has unveiled new track "Don't Be Another" to accompany the announcement.
After returning in November last year with "Like A Heart Won't Beat" and following it up with "Oh, Silly George" in January, Pelembe has delivered "Don't Be Another", which arrives with news of his upcoming second album.
He says of the new single: "New life and the end of it. You could find a place to hide behind your palms, eyes shut, digging out the past, like some lost scavenger. OR, you might find yourself in a better place if you ‘straighten out your spine, shoot for something GOOD, promise you won't cry, and be the ties that bind.’ I'd actually just finished the album the night before, me and my manager zoomed around London blasting it out and he suggested I try and write a track for another bigger artist. Why not?
"Anyway, got dropped off at home, got the Gretsch out, put pen to paper. 20 minutes later it was fucking written! Verses, chorus, bridge, ALL OF IT. Fell right out the sky. Easy. Way too easy. And too good to share. Like a Terry’s Chocolate Orange. One of the best songs I've written so far. Fuck giving this one to anyone else!"
Hardly The Same Snake will follow his 2019 debut album Dreaming Is Dead Now, and was re-recorded twice due to his dissatisfaction with earlier versions.
