Egyptian Blue have announced their debut album A Living Commodity will be released October 27th via Yala! Records. The Brighton band - who have ridden a wave of hype since their inception - also today share new single “Skin.” Following an enforced break during the dark days of pandemic and latterly pouring all their collective creative energies into creating a new sound that showcases an undeniable new ambition, hunger and dimension.

"Skin was a demo I wrote on my balcony on a hot summer’s day. I became completely infatuated by the shakers, insisting that this is a shaker song and the rest is just background noise. It’s a simple song and kind of structurally unorthodox. But again as many EB songs have the tendency to complicate simple ideas, Skin certainly wasn’t an exception. I see wide open spaces snapping into a tight and clean portrait and back and forth between them. It toys with the idea of being ok then not ok and pining to wear another’s Skin in the climate of discontent in yourself and your situations."
