Funeral For A Friend have a double a-side single coming this July, which will be released as both a limited edition 7" and free download.
Both songs - 'Waterfront Dance Club' and 'Beneath The Burning Tree' - are completely new and didn't appear on the band's last gold-selling album 'Tales Don't Tell Themselves'.
To celebrate the release, the Welsh rockers have even started their own record label titled Join Us Records, which was funded by Ingenious Music and built on Integral's (a division of PIAS) infrastructure.
"We were fortunate to be on a major label for the past five years," says bassist Gareth Davies, "Now we are in a great position to take the time investment that they have already put into us, and walk away, and start afresh, with a clean slate and with the fanbase already in place. This is a great stepping stone for us."
'Waterfront Dance Club' / 'Beneath The Burning Tree' is released on July 14th, two weeks before Funeral For A Friend embark on their Summer tour - including both festivals and headline shows. The band play:
Jun 28 - Woodstock, Wakestock Festival
Jun 30 - Manchester, Academy 3
Jul 1 - Glasgow, King Tuts
Jul 2 - London, Kings College
Jul 4 - Newport, TJ's
Jul 5 - Abersoch, Wakestock Festival
Jul 6 - Port Lympne Wild Animal Park, Zoo Thousand & Eight Festival
