New York, NY (February 1, 2019) - Irish duo ALL TVVINS has announced their James VincentMcMorrow co-produced, sophomore album, Just To Exist, will arrive April 12 on Faction Records, premiering a new single, "Build A Bridge" yesterday via Billboard - out today b/w "My Future" -stream + share. Conor Adams and Lar Kaye will celebrate Just To Exist with a massive hometown performance, April 13 at Dublin's National Stadium, which will be the first time in years that the venue has included a standing area for a gig.

Pre-order Just To Exist

"Build A Bridge" adds an inventive new touch to ALL TVVINS' widescreen sound. It opens with an enticing vocal loop which gives the song an immediately irresistible edge before melding into the kind of bold hook in which the duo have forged their reputation. The production is full of leftfield, modernist elements while Conor's vocals possess an elegant phrasing which maximises its buoyantly optimistic vibe. The track emerged when the duo created a vocal loop that was too manic to use but too intriguing to ignore. After drastically dropping its BPM and lowering its pitch, it evolved into the central groove.

It was a huge pay off when we figured it out," says Kaye, glowing at the memory. "All three of us knew we had something amazing.

Conor's lyrics were written to evoke an atmosphere rather than to make a specific statement. As he explains, "I wanted to convey the feeling when you're driving out in the mountains with a summer evening sunset and anything seems possible."

"Build A Bridge" is accompanied by another new track in the shape of "My Future". An unclassifiable mix of off-kilter indie with sonic elements which recall the current Afrobeats scene, it shows that ALL TVVINS continue to be predictably unpredictable.

ALL TVVINS have been building momentum the past few months, teasing Just To Exist with its first two singles, "Hell of a Party" and "Infinite Swim", which have picked up radio support from 2FM, Radio X and Today FM together with a number of key playlists such as key playlists at Spotify (New Music Friday), Apple Music (Best of the Week) and Deezer (Brand New UK).

In addition to their Dublin release show, All Tvvins have announced a May UK/European tour, along with huge sold-out outdoor performances at the Irish Independent Park in June, with The Coronas andSigrid, as well as the Indie 19 Festival which will be headlined by Biffy Clyro and Bastille, in August.
