With his eagerly-awaited new album set to land in just a few weeks, Alfie Templeman has now dropped the next cut to be lifted from his forthcoming full-length.
The new single 'Beckham' follows on from the previously shared 'Eyes Wide Shut', 'Hello Lonely' and the record's title-track in previewing his new LP 'Radiosoul', which is out on the 7th June via Chess Club Records / AWAL.
Speaking about the new offering, he said, “The chorus of Beckham is the list of places I was looking to move houses to in London. I moved for the first time in my life during summer of ’23, which was really exciting. But the days counting down to moving out truly felt like the realest and most dignifying moments of my life. Like a whole new chapter had started, albeit one brimming with everyday anxiety – that existential dread building in you making the present ever so blurry. It’s one of a few songs on Radiosoul where I try to face it and find clarity, and was partially inspired by Beatles songs like “Strawberry Fields Forever” and “Tomorrow Never Knows” where everything is a bit twisted. It’s a nice way of painting with words.”
