Dave Rowntree unveils new track 'Tape Measure'

With his eagerly-awaited debut solo album arriving early next year, Dave Rowntree has now unveiled yet another cut lifted from his forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Tape Measure' features additional vocals from Juliyah, and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'HK', 'Devil's Island', and 'London Bridge' in previewing his first LP 'Radio Songs', which is out on the 23rd January via Cooking Vinyl.

Speaking about the new offering, he said, "Anxiety - an unpleasant emotion of inner turmoil and dread. We're fundamentally herd animals, whose main defensive tactic is running away and hiding. We've no sharp claws or teeth to fight with. So we're over sensitised to danger. We see shapes in the shadows, faces in the fire. Disaster always lurks on the grey edges of our consciousness. On the upside, come the zombie apocalypse, we anxious people will already be in hiding, leaving all you smug normies to have your brains eaten."
