Royal Blood Tease New Single ‘Mountains At Midnight’
Royal Blood have shared a preview of their forthcoming single, Mountains At Midnight, on their social media channels. The song will be released this Thursday (25 May) and is available to pre-save here. Watch the 38-second teaser clip of the band working on the track in the studio below.
The Brighton duo – Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher – released their third and most recent studio album, Typhoons, back in 2021. They returned with a standalone track titled Honeybrains early last year.
The news comes as the band prepare for two warm-up shows ahead of their upcoming UK and European tour at Nottingham Rock City (26 May) and Newcastle’s O2 City Hall (21 June).
The new dates build upon a summer schedule which is packed with major outdoor shows. A huge homecoming On The Beach show in Brighton looks set to be a career highlight for the duo, while they are also confirmed to play three stadium shows as special guests to Muse. In addition, Royal Blood are set to be one of the defining bands of 2023’s festival circuit, with headline sets at Truck, Kendal Calling and Y NOT? as well as prime billing at both Glastonbury and TRNSMT.
In addition to the UK dates, listed below, Royal Blood will tour Europe throughout the summer with a mix of intimate headline shows and further gigs as special guests to Muse. They’re also confirmed to play two major North American festivals: Sea.Hear.Now and Louder Than Life.
