Tigercub Share New Single ‘Blue Mist In My Head’, And Announce UK Headline Tour

---

Tigercub have shared their new single ‘Blue Mist In My Head’, from their highly-anticipated second album ‘As Blue As Indigo’. The new song follows the band’s previously released singles ‘Beauty’ and ‘Beat On My Heart (Like A Bass Drum)’ which was their first new material since 2017.

The forthcoming record was written and produced by the band’s own Jamie Stephen Hall over two years and champions introspection drawing on the subjectivity of colour. It was engineered and co-produced by Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse), and subsequently mixed by Tom Dalgety (Pixies, Ghost, Royal Blood).

‘Blue Mist In My Head’ features an expansive outing that pairs soft, lilting vocals and deeply personal lyrics to striking musical dynamics and one of their strongest chorus hooks yet.

“Lyrically “Blue Mist In My Head” is about coping with depression whilst feeling alienated and disconnected from others.” Jamie said about the themes behind the song. “That sense of feeling like I’m on auto-pilot going through the motions of life – I’m not really there, I’m not in the room, I’ve disappeared completely.”

“I never really felt in the past that I could talk about really personal things. I’d always used a mask. It’s quite easy to do that because you’re not exposing yourself in anyway. I’d always subconsciously tried to shy away from talking about myself,” Jamie notes, talking about where the lyrics on the new album came from. “I didn’t want to do that anymore. I wanted this to be about me and process my emotions for the first time. I think that’s made us more genuine and authentic as a band”
