02 MAY 2019 (TORONTO, ON) - Today, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds release a brand new single – “Black Star Dancing”.  The single, produced by Noel, is taken from the EP of the same name - available digitally and on 12” vinyl to pre-order now – to be released on June 14^th. Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will headline Isle of Wight Festival the same day.

 

Noel says of the single: "It manages to combine the influences of David Bowie, INXS, U2, Queen, Indeep AND ZZ Top FFS! ... I might have been watching too much Top Of The Pops recently ... anyway, it's ‘dope’ … not my words, but the words of Nile Rodgers who literally danced in the studio when he heard it!”

 

Featuring new kaleidoscopic artwork by Gareth Halliday, the EP includes 2 new tracks “Rattling Rose” and “Sail On,” as well as a 12” mix of “Black Star Dancing” and a remix by London-based French DJ/producer Nicolas Laugier, aka The Reflex.

 

The full EP track-listing is:

 

1. Black Star Dancing
2. Rattling Rose
3. Sail On
4. Black Star Dancing (12” Mix)
5. Black Star Dancing (The Reflex Revision)
