Goldfrapp have unveiled the first piece of music to be taken from their new album ‘Tales Of Us’ which will be released via Mute Recordings, September 9.

‘Tales Of Us’ is the 6th studio album from Goldfrapp and has been written and produced by by band members Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory, and was recorded at their studio in the English countryside.

Goldfrapp will perform the new album at two sold out shows at the Manchester International Festival on 17 & 18 July where they will be performing ‘Tales Of Us’ accompanied by the Royal Northern College of Music string orchestra.

The band will then be performing at Somerset House, too, on 20 July before going on to headline the Lovebox main stage on Sunday 21 July. The summer shows are a precursor to a European headline tour in October and November.
