audiobooks Release New Single ‘Tryna Tryna Take Control’

    audiobooks, the duo of David Wrench and Evangeline Ling, have today shared a new single, ‘Tryna Tryna Take Control’. They’ve also announced a run of shows in the UK, kicking off at Colours Hoxton in London on February 23. Check out the track and find the list of dates below.

    audiobooks’ most recent LP, Astro Tough, came out last year. “After having to wait so long between finishing recording Astro Tough and its release, we wanted to record and release something quickly,” audiobooks said of ‘Tryna Tryna Take Control’ in a statement. “This track draws musical inspiration from 70s Brazilian legends Caetano Veloso, and Milton Nasciomento as well as smooth 80s pop stars Sade and Terence Trent D’Arby …. but all put together with a very post punk attitude.”

    They added: “Things are not always as they appear. Goody Two-Shoes are often very confusing. On one level they want everyone to see their halo and on another they want to put everybody else down. Their halo is made of plastic, it’s just for show! What better name for an Owl than Ronnie O Sullivan? The enigmatic snooker genius who can simultaneously play with wild instinct and killer precision.”
