Jungle, has shared their new single “Truth.” The track is off the UK duo’s new album, Loving In Stereo, which arrives on August 13 via AWAL. Jungle’s co-founder Tom McFarland states, “‘Truth’ is another moment on the record which came very quickly and naturally. It was the most different sounding thing we had made at the time and for that reason couldn’t ignore it. For us it’s about youth, love, and trust. The feeling of finding someone who means more than anything else in the world.”

Jungle directed the video for “Truth” alongside longtime collaborator and creative partner Charlie Di Placido, the fourth entry in a larger project to create a visual identity for every track on the forthcoming album. In pursuit of this aim, Jungle filmed all the visuals in five days, shooting roughly three videos a day.

“When we write music there’s hope,” says the other half of Jungle Josh Lloyd-Watson. “Maybe today we’ll create something that influences people and changes the way they feel. If you can make something that lifts people, that’s an amazing feeling.”

Loving In Stereo was recorded at J&T’s own studio as well as The Church Studios. The album features songwriting contributions from Inflo—a Mercury Prize and Ivor Novello Award winner for his work with Michael Kiwanuka and Little Simz—as well as vocal contributions from Dreamville rapper Bas Priya Ragu, which marks the duo’s first feature collaborations.

Jungle has confirmed an extensive run of worldwide tour dates. The run of North American dates kicks off in Boston on October 3 and includes shows at DC’s Anthem, Chicago’s The Riviera Theatre and Philadelphia’s The Fillmore as well as multiple performances at Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre and Brooklyn’s Avant Gardner. See below for the full tour routing.

Jungle was founded by J&T, who met at the age of 10 in West London’s Shepherd’s Bush. They began making music together at the beginning of 2013, choosing to put the aesthetic emphasis on the music’s surrounding artwork/videos rather than on their own identities.
