London Grammar have released new single “Kind Of Man.” The track, is the second from the band’s forthcoming album The Greatest Love, The song follows previous single “House.” “Kind Of Man” arrives ahead of the band’s appearance at qLatitude Festival and the Glastonbury Park Stage this summer. The Greatest Love is the follow up to London Grammar’s 2021 LP Californian Soil in 2021. The trio includes Hannah Reid, Dan Rothman and Dot Major.

“Kind Of Man” is a playful take that draws on some of the themes explored by frontwoman Hannah Reid in the British trio’s 2021 album Californian Soil, where she detailed her experiences of misogyny in the music industry. Speaking about the new track Reid said, “’Kind of Man’ is about watching somebody descend into the sort of glamour and slight corruption of Hollywood. The song is obviously about misogyny but it’s about sexism in a tongue-in-cheek way. That’s kind of what I love about the song. I didn’t want it to be melancholic in any way. So, yeah it’s quite an upbeat way of saying that. I like the fact that it’s talking about a pattern of relationship where you could maybe expect a man who might not respect you and who might be the exact kind of man to fall in love with you – and it’s kind of that dichotomy.”
