Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds has dropped a new single, “Black Star Dancing,” ahead of a new EP. The EP, also titled Black Star Dancing, will be released June 14 digitally and on 12″ vinyl.
“Black Star Dancing” is Gallagher’s first new music since 2017’s Who Built The Moon?. The musician said that it combines “the influences of David Bowie, INXS, U2, Queen, Indeep and ZZ Top. “I might have been watching too much Top Of The Pops recently,” Gallagher said. “Anyway, it’s ‘dope.’ Not my words, but the words of Nile Rodgers who literally danced in the studio when he heard it.” Gallagher previously told NME that “everything I’m writing at the minute sounds like The Police, The Cure or if The Police and The Cure were in a band together.”
'Black Star Dancing’ is taken from the EP of the same name, which will be released digitally and on 12” vinyl on June 14th.
