“Show Me More” Girl Ray

UK trio Girl Ray have announced, their new album Girl will come out on November 8 via Moshi Moshi. The full-length was Recorded at London’s Electric Beach Studios with Ash Workman (Christine and the Queens, Metronomy) Poppy Hankin, Iris McConnell and Sophie Moss AKA: Girl Ray have shared a taster of the new record with “Show Me More.” They note the song is about “crushing really hard but having to play the long game and wait it out because your boo is playing savage games. It’s your classic pop banger. Steamy dance floor. Drinks on me.” The accompanying video was directed by Crusoe Weston and features the band cycling around the city at dusk.

Ariana Grande’s explosion into pop culture, really kickstarted a new era for Girl Ray, as well as the realisation that their most-listened-to Spotify playlists contained pure pop music. When Poppy began experimenting with writing songs on a computer using keyboards, a collection of shimmering, foot-tapping, sparkling pop bangers poured out. With this new set of songs, Girl Ray have been brave enough to completely change their sound rather than play it safe, yet still remain unmistakably themselves – it’s Girl Ray, but with added synths.
