And So I Watch You From Afar release their new single ‘Straight Through The Sun’ this week. Produced and recorded by Jetplane Landings Andrew Ferris on 1st November (and accompanied by a ferocious B side) 'Straight Through The Sun' has been made available for free on ‘Pay By Tweet’ since 15th November. (Bargain we say!). A 7 Inch vinyl version will also be made available exclusively on the bands upcoming tour from November 22nd and on the Smalltown America Webstore from 27th November 2010.
This one-off single will be the last new material before ASIWYFA release the follow up to their critically acclaimed eponymous debut album in spring 2011.
