Hotly-tipped London-based seven piece The Orchestra (For Now) have released their first ever song “Wake Robin”.

Winners of this year’s edition of Green Man Rising, opening the main stage at the acclaimed tastemaker festival, and fresh off the back of two sold out shows at London’s St Pancras Old Church, the band have also just announced their next London headline at the ICA on 10th April.

“Wake Robin” should not be the work of a band releasing their first song. A dextrous multi-limbed assault on the senses, “Wake Robin” is an 8 minute odyssey, welding orchestral movements with rapid fire drumming and a preacher on the mountain top vocal delivery. The Orchestra (For Now) emphatically bring all these strands together with a confidence and delivery that is a testament to their months of live experience and careful development of their sound.
