There’s been a buzz of expectation emanating from the White Lies’ camp lately, as the band have posted teasers for new music and live dates. Yesterday saw confirmation of a new album As I Try Not To Fall Apart, due for release in February 2022, plus a string of UK & Ireland tour dates in March before heading across Europe.

The band have also shared the title track from the album, saying, “We wrote this song quickly, late one night, and often the songs which come quickest are written from the gut and the heart, not with the head. We wanted the melody to feel like a hymn, to give the confessional lyrics weight despite being wrapped up as a pop song. It’s about accepting vulnerability as a man, and knowing it’s ok to be broken. There’s never been a more pressing time to spread the message that it’s ok to not be ok”.
