Bottlemoth Releases Debut Song “Tattoo”
British indie-folk band Bottlemoth, consisting of Ethan Proctor Williams (vocals/guitar), Chessa Proctor Williams (vocals/Keyboards), Matt Bond (vocals/lead guitar), Henry Matthews (bass) and Tom Farkas (drums), released their debut song “Tattoo” on July 11, 2024.
The song is the first single off of their upcoming debut album “Even Us Ghosts”, which is set to be released later this year.
The band has already filmed a music video for the song, which is coming on July 18, 2024.
The track was written and produced by the band themselves across home studios, drums were produced with Joe Marsh at Orchard Studios.
Combining emotive vocals and wistful lyrics with uplifting soundscapes, the track is an introspective rumination on the passing of time, permanence and change, whilst at its core is a heartfelt celebration of love and friendship.
It was written by Ethan Proctor, Francesca Williams, Henry Matthews, Josh Redman Thomas, Matt Bond, and Tom Farkas. Produced by Bottlemoth.- The band lead singer Ethan Proctor Williams said of the song, “I got my first tattoo when Chess and I met. Henry and Tom had lots already, and I'd maybe thought too much about the permanence before. Etching memories and art into your skin can be a wonderful thing, and I now have the buzz. Collecting them has become a real hobby now, but I don't think I'll ever be covered. I think people that can be fully covered in tattoos must have a strong sense of who they are, and that's inspiring to me. We can riddle ourselves with doubt, and sometimes it's hard to just do it.”
He continued, “Thinking on friendships that never change and on the people that will always be there, the lyrics came together. There is a synergy there with ink that lasts forever and those that will always be by your side. It's a song about being lucky; it's a song about things changing, and a song for when they never need to.” - source : Spotify
