AlunaGeorge announce details of new album Body Music


AlunaGeorge has been one of the most fun groups to watch over the past year, their infectiously innovative EP You Know You Like It having made a splash in both the UK and US (and it’s title track was one of our Top 50 Songs of 2012). Building on the dreamy, UK bass-inspired pop of that EP, “Your Drums, Your Love” followed a few months later, and earlier this year, a cool track and a cool video arrived in the form of fairy-tale clip “Attracting Flies.” All that momentum and anticipation has built up to the release of the band’s debut full-length, Body Music, which will be released July 29 via Island.
That’s the cover art above, depicting singer Aluna Francis wedged into a mirrored box (yet still looking glamorous in spite of it). And the tracklist contains a few familiar songs, including “Just a Touch,” “Attracting Flies,” “Your Drums, Your Love” and “You Know You Like It,” in a slightly different album version, which you can stream below.
The duo also has a long list of tour dates on the horizon, which you can read after the tracklist.
