Whitney deliver new cuts "Memory" and "County Lines"

25 August 2022, 15:34 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Whitney have unveiled another two new outings from their SPARK album titled "Memory" and "County Lines".

"Memory" and "County Lines" will appear on Whitney's third album with previous singles "Twirl", "Blue" and "Real Love". "County Lines" features string arrangements by Rob Moose, and saxophone by Sam Gendel.

Speaking about "Memory", Whitney say, "The lyrics of "MEMORY" illustrate someone processing and eventually accepting their fear of death. Halfway through writing the song our bandmate Will Miller sent along the chords for what would become the outro of the song without ever hearing "Memory". It was one of those harmonious moments where two separate ideas somehow fit together immediately. The final third speaking to the afterlife in a way we wouldn’t have been able to match with words."

SPARK will follow Whitney's 2019 album Forever Turned Around, and their 2020 Candid covers album.

"Memory" and "County Lines" are both out now. Whitney's SPARK album will arrive 16 September via Secretly Canadian, and is available to pre-order now. They'll play London's O2 Academy Brixton on 23 November. Tickets are on sale now via whitneytheband.com.
