GRADE 2 FERRY TALES!

GRADE 2 FERRY TALES!

Isle of Wight punks GRADE 2 have unveiled another new single from their latest album.

'Midnight Ferry' is taken from the trio's Tim Armstrong-produced self-titled fourth album, their second since hooking up with Hellcat, following on from 2019's Graveyard Island.

“This song is our story, a tale of a night out and the truth of growing up in a rural town,” the band explains. “Capturing the adventurous spirit, trying to escape any mundane responsibilities, if just for a night. Just know you’ll be brought straight back down to earth on that journey home.”

 

'Midnight Ferry' is available to stream/download here.

The band has a busy six months ahead of them - the handful of dates previously announced has expanded into a full tour, followed by a European headlining tour with DEATH BY STEREO, before heading out as support for RANCID culminating in a pair of UK dates in London and Manchester.
