FRIDAY NOVEMBER 23, 2018 – HILLTOP HOODS have announced the release of their brand-new single ‘LEAVE ME LONELY’, and the special edition ‘RESTRUNG LIVE’ music-doco out today. The band also announced that their much-anticipated forthcoming studio album ‘THE GREAT EXPANSE’ will be released on Friday February 22, 2019.
‘Leave Me Lonely’ follows on from the ARIA nominated Gold single ‘Clark Griswold’ (Feat. Adrian Eagle) which has amassed huge global streams and over a million YouTube hits already. Alongside the success of ‘Clark Griswold’, show stopping performance at this year’s Splendour In The Grass and a sold-out UK and European Tour including appearances at Reading and Leeds Festivals have marked Hilltop Hoods return to the world stage.
Suffa jokes that ‘Leave me Lonely’ is a song about the eternal struggle of being cornered by a close-talker. It’s a song that’s relatable to anyone that’s ever been outside. Or in a room with more than four people.’
Some people might recognise elements of Richard Berry’s song ‘Have Love Will Travel’, as it has been covered by The Sonics and The Black Keys. ‘Leave Me Lonely’ is available Here Today.
The band has also unveiled a video trailer for the ‘Restrung Live’ music-doco which celebrates Hilltop Hoods’ most successful national tour to date with over 50,000 tickets sold. Filmed during the national sold out ‘Restrung’ Arena Tour in 2016, the ‘Restrung Live’ music-doco shows a rare glimpse into the world behind the stage, with interviews from Hilltop Hoods, their team, fans and contemporaries. The ‘Restrung Live’ music-doco will be available Here Today.
Pre-orders for Hilltop Hoods new album ‘The Great Expanse’ will also be available Here today with the first two singles ‘Leave Me Lonely’ & ‘Clark Griswold’ available as instant grat tracks in the iTunes pre-order. As an added bonus when pre-ordering through the official album store fans can get the ‘Restrung Live’ music-doco free as part the order.
