Ten Fé Unveil New Song COASTING From Upcoming New Album

Ten Fé will release their incredible sophomore record Future Perfect, Present Tense on March 8th via Some Kinda Love/PIAS, and today they share another track from the album “Coasting.” The band say the song is a “celebration of new love.” They explain: “it's a simple statement - 'when I'm with you, I don't need anything or anyone else. This feels easy, it feels like a fresh start: I'm coasting'. Musically we kept it really simple too to reflect the sentiment. We wanted it to feel rootsy like The E Street Band and CCR and also channel a Britpop directness.” Listen to the song HERE and check out the article in The Line of Best Fit HERE, who say “the hypnotising 'Coasting' has the frank songwriting voice of Young and Springsteen, and the lofty instrumentation of Deerhunter and War On Drugs.”
