Our Nameless Boy unveil brand new single 'Dress Rehearsal'
Hot on the heels of powerful singles ‘Leaving Party’ and ‘Mr Right’, Bristol’s favourite quiet/loud emo-inspired four-piece Our Nameless Boy have unveiled their latest offering, ‘Dress Rehearsal’, which is out now.
‘Dress Rehearsal’ sees Our Nameless Boy return to the lyrical themes of introspection and self-analysis which made 2021’s ‘Colour From The Doves’ so unique. Exploring further the deep complexity of the human condition, vocalist Iain Gorrie delves into his learnings for a four-and-a-half minute crescendo of delicate, internally-directed frustration and understanding.
On the lyrical content of ‘Dress Rehearsal’, Gorrie says ‘[the track] touches on the idea of reflecting upon a conversation or encounter and wishing you’d done or said something differently. My wife’s ability to think and process new information, as well as her emotions, and ultimately speak her mind with clarity and confidence in the moment is something I envy and try my best to emulate. More often than not though, I feel I need time to process and adequately verbalise whatever instincts I have, and that can be frustrating for me, and perhaps the people I’m with. The ‘Dress Rehearsal’ in question then is the imagining of how a situation could go - getting in the way of being wholly present in that situation.’
To celebrate the release of ‘Dress Rehearsal’, Our Nameless Boy will be touring the UK this May/June.
