Today, the beloved Irish band - who recently took home the trophy for “Best Band In The World” at the 2022 BandLab NME Awards - released the final single to come ahead of their new album titled “Roman Holiday”. The track was premiered by Zane Lowe alongside an interview with the band on his Apple Music 1 show. The track was also featured on New Music Daily.
