NEWS - Spirited Followers explore tragic loss and reunion on latest single 'Until My Throat Aches'
FFO: Lankum • Swans • Godspeed You! Black Emperor
'Until My Throat Aches', is the second single from Spirited Followers' forthcoming debut album. A companion to their first single 'Returning', the track continues the band's exploration of loss and reunion, shifting focus toward a more direct and ambiguous encounter. Drawing on Appalachian hymn traditions, it feels both familiar and newly unearthed, carrying forward themes of grief and transcendence. Spirited Followers' work resists easy categorisation, blending Western folk traditions with global and avant-garde influences to create immersive, evolving soundscapes. Based in Cardiff, the ensemble are known for their fluid performances and expansive instrumentation, where each piece unfolds in real time.
