Field Music have shared a new single, ‘The Waitress of St Louis’, taken from their forthcoming LP Limits of Language. It follows previous cuts ‘Six Weeks, Nine Wells’ and the title track. Check it out below.
Speaking about the track, the band’s Peter Brewis shared: “‘The Waitress of St. Louis’ is an ode to a lost place of sanctuary, Louis’ cafe in Sunderland, set to synthesised riffs, bouncing drums, and wiry guitars. Who or what is St. Louis’? The possessive apostrophe because it had been established by grandpa Louis over 100 years ago, and the unofficial canonisation because it was our place of congregation and a source of faith (in humanity as well as excellent coffee). We were privileged to have had a place like Louis’ in our lives but places like that rarely last as long as a lifetime – we see them disappear, leaving us with photographs and memories, looking for somewhere else to go.”
Limits of Language lands on October 11 via Memphis Industries.
