Catching Flies - real name George King - returns with his new single ‘GLY,’ a slice of uplifting, sophisticated dance music that sits in the sweet spot between dancefloor and headphones. It’s highly textured, deeply melodic and effortlessly marries live instrumentation (guitars, harps, a string quartet) with warm electronic beats. A remix package of the single will follow in May 2021 with remixes from British dance-pop stalwarts Hot Chip and Ninja Tune’s DJ Boring.

‘GLY’ marks Catching Flies’ first artist release since his critically acclaimed 2019 debut album ‘Silver Linings.’ Future Music described it as “A brilliantly eclectic record…a moving journey that will last long in the memory”, Clash Magazine praised the LP’s “killer beats” and “artfully orchestrated introspection”, whilst London In Stereo mentioned it’s “exceptional production”. Other press coverage for the album included The Guardian, Complex, Nowness, i-D Magazine, Dazed & Confused, Electronic Sound and The Line of Best Fit. Artist support for ‘Silver Linings’ came from the likes of Bonobo, Jungle, Loyle Carner, George Fitzgerald and Lane 8. He toured the album performing sold out headline Live shows throughout the UK, Europe, Asia and North America, as well as DJ shows at Bonobo’s ‘OUTLIER’ event in the US. Catching Flies also does soundtrack work for film and video games, and has recently been nominated for a BAFTA.
