Silverbacks have released new love song ‘Giving Away An Inch Of’ ahead of their third album

Silverbacks have shared their new single ‘Giving Away An Inch Of’.

It’s the latest to be taken from their upcoming third album ‘Easy Being A Winner’, due 18th October, following previous singles ‘Selling Shovels’ and ‘Something I Know’.

Vocalist Kilian O’Kelly explains the themes behind the track: “This one is a love song and mostly about the balance of relationships. The main idea was that one of the lovers was going to be pleading for a little bit more compromise from their other half. I wanted to have lots of ties to nature too and I think Nick Cave’s version of “nature boy” played a part there. Emma and I now have a garden in Drogheda, and with it has come a newfound interest in plants! Red hot pokers are probably one of our favourites. I always like it when human emotions are conveyed by the natural world. The delivery of red hot pokers coming out of the chorus is inspired by Elvis’s “Poke-Salad-Annie” performance in Vegas.”
