Young Fathers have announced their fourth studio album.
The follow-up to 2018's 'Cocoa Sugar' is called 'Heavy Heavy' and will arrive on February 3 via Ninja Tune.
To accompany the news, the Mercury Prize-winning trio have shared the record's bold, fierce second single, I Saw, which offers a contrasting aesthetic to the dark, slow-burning vibe of their previously unveiled track Geronimo.
The Scottish band will support the full-length with a newly announced UK and Ireland tour in February and March, with stops lined up in Bristol, Leeds, Dublin, Glasgow, Newcastle, Manchester and London, where they'll take over the Roundhouse. Tickets go on general sale at 10am on October 28.
'Heavy Heavy' tracklist:
1. Rice
2. I Saw
3. Drum
4. Tell Somebody
5. Geronimo
