‘Think I Need It Too’ is the brilliant new single from the mighty Echo & The Bunnymen, and the first release from their forthcoming album ‘The Fountain’. It’s a joyous, uplifting, utterly infectious slice of luscious pop and Mac’s voice sounds stronger than ever.“I’m just a better writer and better singer these days,” he says. “My voice has got more… honest.” The B side will be a new track entitled ‘November’. The single’s widescreen, crystalline sound is the work of Scottish producer John McLaughlin, who produced the whole album, and whose credits may come as a surprise to some Bunnymen fans. “He’s done work with Busted and Five, who I loved!” smiles Mac. “I just became really good friends with him. I really wanted a big, solid undertow beneath the lyrics.

‘The Fountain’, due for release in November, is a powerful album that sees the Bunnymen back to their very best and with a truly modern sensibility that should see a whole new generation discover one of the UK’s most iconic bands.

The last year has seen a triumphant resurgence for Echo & The Bunnymen. Their sold out ‘Ocean Rain’ shows last year at the Royal Albert Hall, London, Radio City Music Hall, New York & Liverpool Echo Arena were met with huge critical acclaim and recent performances at the likes of this year’s Camden Crawl and Glastonbury rightly received rapturous receptions.

The band take to the road again this autumn, dates are as follows:

Wolverhampton Wulfrun Hall 12th October
Manchester The Ritz 13th October
Glasgow Barrowlands 14th October
London Roundhouse 15th October

Oxford 02 Academy 12th December
Newcastle 02 Academy 14th December
Leeds 02 Academy 15th December
Liverpool 02 Academy 17th December
Liverpool 02 Academy 18th December
Liverpool 02 Academy 19th December
