UK group SIIGHTS have shared new single “Words”, the track is now out via Insanity Records. The track follows their previous single “Miss You” and tour-dates with Lana Del Rey, Dylan, and Griff. SIIGHTS’ headline tour kicks off later this month, with a London show at The Grace on February 6th and dual homecoming-shows in Dublin and Glasgow respectively also confirmed.

“Words” chronicles the talking stage of a new romance – the struggle to say how you feel amidst DM-culture, and the difficulties (but also, the liberation) of potentially being understood by someone else. Like much of SIIGHTS’ upcoming project, it’s as much a leap of faith as it is ultimately about backing yourself, with the DIY duo’s assured production recalling the alt-pop influence of Fleetwood Mac or Muna even when ‘Words’ fail us.

Drawing on influences ranging from the classic rock of The Runaways to new-gen heroes like HAIM. The double-I represents their two identities, but also hint at deeper allusions across the group’s lives (whether foresight, hindsight, or the broadened horizons they long to make as female producers and multi-instrumentalists in the creative industries). The band’s next EP is also set to feature SIIGHTS’ first collaborations, with Grammy Award-winning producer Jenn Decilveo (The Strokes, Miley Cyrus) and Bastian Langebaek (Nilüfer Yanya, Anna of the North).
