August UK/EU Tour Dates below
Ducks Ltd. today shared their driving, shimmering cover of Camera Obscura’s classic “Lloyd, I’m Ready To Be Heartbroken,” featuring Gep Repasky from Lunar Vacation .
The song is the Toronto band’s first new music since last fall’s single “Grim Symmetry,” which followed up their acclaimed album of the same year, Harm’s Way. “I first heard the Lloyd Cole song ‘Are You Ready to Be Heartbroken?’ when a friend played me Rattlesnakes, which became a favorite. Later I realized the Camera Obscura track was a nod to it, and I was instantly hooked—it’s an indie pop classic that channels ’80s UK influences into something fresh,” explains guitarist/vocalist Tom McGreevy. “We originally covered it during a radio session around Harm’s Way, and after playing it on tour, we decided to record it properly. Gep from Lunar Vacation did a killer vocal arrangement that elevated it.”
“Lloyd, I’m Ready To Be Heartbroken (feat. Lunar Vacation)” is out now via Carpark Records. Listen here
