Jonny Pierce has shared a new single as the Drums, I Want It All.
The introspective indie-pop track follows the group's 2021 compilation album, 'Mommy Don't Spank Me', which comprises a collection of rarities from 2011's 'Portamento' era. Frontman Jonny Pierce commented:
"The song emerged from the longing and the pain that stemmed from a loveless childhood. It is only in the past few years that I have really begun to understand what happened to me as a boy, which has helped me start to build my own bridge towards real love."
He added: "The song is a declaration: That I will take what I was never given. I want the full experience of being human, which includes love and connection. I want it all."
Alongside the new music, Pierce has announced a summer North American tour in support of a forthcoming sixth album, kicking off at San Diego’s House Of Blues on July 12, before stops in cities including Nashville, Chicago, Seattle, and San Francisco. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on April 7.
