Lacey Unveil New Single
"Middle England"

New Album "This Is All We Are" Releases 17th July

Nottingham Album Launch Show Announced

With their new album This Is All We Are just a couple of weeks away, Nottingham alt-rock quartet Lacey have unveiled one last new single from the album before it releases on the 17th of July.

"Middle England" is out now and finds Lacey in a thought provoking mood. The song is a power ballad with a punch to it, lamenting on the up's and down's of the current state of life in Lacey's homeland. Check out Middle England here:

Lacey frontman Graham "Graz" Turner describes Middle England as "reflective of the typical English sentiment of looking on the bright side, things could be worse."

In addition to being available on YouTube, Middle England is available to stream on Spotify and Apple Music.

Middle England is the fourth single to be released from This Is All We Are, following on from Run Away, I Always Tell The Truth (Even When I Lie) and the hugely successful first single from the album, Dream In A Little Less Colour. 

This Is All We Are is Lacey's first new album in five years, coming as the follow up to the 2018 album I Don't Owe The World A Thing. This Is All We Are will be released on the 17th of July. The album was recorded at Steel City Studio in Sheffield and produced by Phil Gornell from the studio who also handled mixing duties. Engineering was handled by Callum Benson, also of Steel City Studio while mastering was done by Grant Berry of Fader Mastering. 

Lacey describe This is All We Are as "14 tracks of lyrical darkness wrapped in a shiny, anthemic, pop package".

Inner turmoil, self-loathing and crippling insecurities meets a sense defiance, insolence, and refusal to lay down. This record really is a classic case of art imitating life, and as in life, you must take the rough with the smooth. This is reflected in the Lacey’s ability to switch between the frenetic, powerful and angry, (3AM Sonata, Run Away) to the softer, more introspective. (Middle England, You Were Right).

Lead singer Graham Turner describes the record as:

"Basically, the soundtrack to what it’s like to feel everything and nothing, all at the same time. Lyrically, no stone is left unturned, and I can guarantee if you’ve ever felt anything, it will be addressed here. This really is a soul bearing ride through every, conceivable human emotion. This is all we are".
