Set to play Body & Soul at the weekend, Dublin duo My Tribe Your Tribe really caught our attention back in February with the dreamy, subtly cascading alt-electro of ‘Only a Horizon’. Going several steps further, their new single, ‘Will To Survive’, was obviously written with those imminent summer festival sets in mind. Danceable in all the first places, it looks both inward and outward, evoking the vocals of Ben Gibbard, and a musical marriage between Caribou and early Arcade Fire. ‘Will To Survive’ – produced by James Darkin at Temple Lane Studio – will be officially released on November 6.

Soon set to play the likes of Body & Soul and Valentia Isle Festival this Summer, ‘Will to Survive’ by Dublin alt-electro duo My Tribe Your Tribe is a song with “summer festival setlist peak” written all over it. Sun-kissed and propulsive in all the right places, was recorded and produced in Temple-lane studios by James Darkin and (in the duo’s own words) “displays the band’s explorations into upbeat, synth-laden electronica.” We’re not even remotely inclined to argue with that. Catch the band at Homebeat’s Tree Haus sage at Body & Soul on Friday, June 19.
