The Ting Tings – Dreaming

The Ting Tings, Jules De Martino & Katie White, return with ‘DREAMING’ the newest single to be taken from their forthcoming album ‘HOME’, the first long-player in six years.

‘HOME’ sees the band embracing sun-kissed West Coast 1970s harmonies and exquisitely turned arrangements inspired by Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan, Dire Straits, Joni Mitchell and the Eagles, to name but a few. The Ting Tings return to the UK this June for two special shows in London and their home town of Manchester. The gigs, at EartH Theatre in London on 9th June and Manchester Gorilla on 13th June, follow the band’s rapturously received sold-out shows at London’s famous Bush Hall.

Talking about ‘DREAMING’, Jules says that the new direction was such a dramatic sea change that they even considered changing the band’s name “I remember the moment on Dreaming which was really crucial in terms of the final song. We were already singing the word, “Dreaming …” which prompted the question, “Well, what are we dreaming about?” I remember in the process of putting the lyrics down, Katie sang about changing our name. We had talked about that”. Katie also had another take on the words “Really, it could be about any situation where you find yourself asking, “Can I wipe the slate clean and start again?”

‘HOME’ also features the single, ‘GOOD PEOPLE DO BAD THINGS’
