Talented English singer/songwriter Patrick Wolf will release his brand new EP, Brumalia, on November 28th. The EP features a beautiful song called “Together,” a standout on Patrick’s recent string of live shows. According to Wolf himself,
“‘Together’ has been the highlight of the live shows over the last year, the audience reaction to this song has been totally inspiring, I always saw it as a song about two lovers reuniting in the dark rainy days around December. For the last few years I’ve been writing a song around Christmas time, creating this winter EP.‘Brumalia’ (which translates as ‘festival of the shortest day’), in a way is like a little brother or sister record to ‘Lupercalia.'”
Brumalia succeeds Wolf’s fifth studio album, Lupercalia, which came out this past summer on Hideout /Mercury Records. The album went on to become Wolf’s highest charting album on the UK charts, peaking at #37. Previous effort, 2009’s The Bachelor only managed to peak at #49, whereas his breakout record, 2007’s The Magic Position came in at #46. The album saw the release of three singles, “Time Of My Life,” “The City,” and “House,” none of which really made a dent in the singles charts. I’m not sure if Wolf is altogether scrapping promotion of his last album, but this new EP should satisfy anyone looking for new music this holiday season.
As a special treat, download this fantastically uptempo remix of Wolf’s new song “Together,” taken from the forthcoming EP release. The remix was done by Sydney based electro-pop duo Garcon Garcon. Check out their website HERE for more information!
