Jockstrap Share New Track, ‘Concrete Over Water’

It's a prelude to their forthcoming debut album on Rough Trade

Jockstrap have released a new single, called ‘Concrete Over Water’.

Out now, the track is billed as a prelude at a forthcoming debut album, which is yet to be fully announced but will arrive on Rough Trade. The song is accompanied by a new video, which the duo debuted during a a premiere screening at Hackney’s The Castle Cinema last Friday (April 8). You can watch the visual above.

In a statement about the track, Jockstrap’s Georgia Ellery said: "’Concrete Over Water’ was written on a summer’s night in 2019 in a flat in Farringdon which was above a pub, and above a train line. The place hummed when the trains went under. The video was born out of the celestial themes in the song. Eddie and I created the characters (Moongirl, Voyager, Magma Boy, etc) to explore the feelings of wonder, inspiration and the search for answers, to reflect what the song represents to me."

‘Concrete Over Water’ is out now on Rough Trade.
