GLASS ANIMALS RELEASES NEW SINGLE “VAMPIRE BAT”

Glass Animals unveil their latest track “Vampire Bat”, the fifth instalment in their Fresh Fruit Series—listen HERE.

Fresh Fruit is a space for Dave Bayley and the band to experiment, bringing in guests and collaborators and allowing Dave (who produces all of the Glass Animals’ records) to play with new sounds. Previous Fresh Fruit releases include

 “Lose Control” with Joey Bada$$, the much-missed “Gold Lime”, “Tokyo Drifting” with Denzel Curry, and “I Don’t Wanna Talk (I Just Wanna Dance)” with Albert Hammond Jr.. “Vampire Bat” is a collaboration between Dave and producer Rob Bisel [SZA]. 

 

Glass Animals continue the extension of their hugely successful “Tour of Earth” across North America this summer—see the list of remaining dates below. Their 2024 “Tour of Earth” was their biggest global tour yet—they captivated audiences worldwide with sold-out performances across North America, Europe, the UK, and Australia, including headline shows at legendary venues like Madison Square Garden, Kia Forum, O2 Arena, and the Sydney Opera House. Watch their short tour documentary, which captures the culmination of 14 years of growth, creativity, and connection, HERE.

In addition to their own headline dates, the band also continues to headline a handful of major festivals across North America this summer, including San Francisco’s Outside Lands and Aspen’s Up In The Sky.

ABOUT GLASS ANIMALS:

Glass Animals is a Grammy and BRIT-nominated British band, whose genre-blending sound and cult-like fandom have made them one of the most exciting acts in global pop. Their third album Dreamland became a cultural phenomenon, selling over 12 million copies and spawning “Heat Waves,” the record-breaking single that topped charts worldwide and made history as the first UK band to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in nearly 30 years. Last year, the band released their fourth critically acclaimed album I Love You So F***ing Much, a sci-fi-infused odyssey about love, connection, and what it means to feel real in a surreal world. It arrived alongside a world tour that included headlining The O2 Arena in London, Madison Square Garden in New York, and The Kia Forum in Los Angeles. Frontman Dave Bayley — also one of pop’s most in-demand producers — writes and produces every song, often with an experimental DIY edge that blurs the lines between music, tech and visual art. Their live shows are euphoric and surreal, driven by a deep connection with fans built through open-source creativity and unexpected digital drops.
