Announcing the project on Instagram, Midland writes: “Its been 4 years since I put out new music. Over lockdown I retreated fully, burnt out in many ways. It also coincided with a studio move and overhaul of my studio process.

“As I started to make music again, I instead focussed on the simple joy of creating with with zero thought about sharing it publicly.”

He continues: “I have never enjoyed making music like I do now and I think it shines through in these tracks. This EP represents a new chapter for me and I am excited to share the rest of it as well as a bunch more music over the next 12 months.”

Along with this new project, Midland is hosting a night at fabric with the likes of rRoxymore, Todd Edwards, Peach and many more.
