London Grammar performed new song ‘Truth Is A Beautiful Thing’ for Comic Relief the other Friday. It’s the title track from the band’s recently announced second album, which is due for release on June 9th.

The follow-up to 2013’s acclaimed ‘If You Wait’ was produced by Paul Epworth (Florence + The Machine, Bloc Party), Greg Kurstin (Sia, Beck), Tim Bran and Roy Kerr, and Jon Hopkins, and is opened with previously released singles ‘Rooting For You’ and ‘Big Picture’.

Hannah Reid said about the record “The first album was a lot more about relationships, but then the second one is too – but in a different way.  It’s probably about the relationship you have with yourself, rather than one specific other person. The relationship that us three had on the road, and there’s a lot about the meaning of life in general, which is SO lame, but that is what we talk about!”
The new album ‘Truth Is A Beautiful Thing’ is out on 9th June,

Today, a month later, they’re back with another. This one’s called “Big Picture” and it also comes with a video. This band just keeps getting better and better at the stirring drama and U2-ish earnest bombast.

Produced by none other than Jon Hopkins there’s really no surprise to its vastly expansive soundscapes and dazzling arrangement of instrumentation, all that carry Hannah Reid’s angelic vocals to soaring new heights. Take a listen below with the accompanying video directed by renown artist Sophie Muller (Coldplay, Beyonce). Big Picture is released through Metal & Dust/Ministry Of Sound/Columbia Records.
