MARCH OF DIMES RELEASE SLEEPING GIANT
Sleeping Giant is the new single from Leeds based, alt-country 5 piece March of Dimes - a 4 minute trans-country drive, based on all the experiences within. Released through Hope House Records on 3rd October 2011, it serves as a taster of the great new album the band are working on,
due out next spring.
Following their last release, the well received and loved 'From Those Who Were There' EP, this single finds March of Dimes considering issues of strength, resilience, reflection and self awakening - all tied together by a road trip that Dimes members Jonathan and Cat took together across Canada
with ex-Dimes guitarist Robin. It conjures a blend of alt.country and Americana - Fleetwood Mac, The Decemberists, R.E.M, The Acorn, Wilco - with great English bands like The Smiths, The Cure and James.
Lead singer Jonathan Moss says, ‘This song represents a time of distance, healing, scenery and resolution. The joy of the journey is in the verses, and the chorus tells of the pain at the destination.’ Working with new producer Ste Anders, together they have created a delicate balance of energy and ennui within Jonathan’s lyrics. Ste also produced the b-side, a special recording of new tune “The Navigation Song”. ‘It’s probably the best we’ve put on record to date, and rather than save it for the album we just wanted to get it out there’
