Magenta have shared a new video for “Tarot,” the title track of their upcoming tenth studio album due on Tigermoth Records on April 10. The trio have also announced two live shows in the south of England – London’s Camden Club on April 25 and Southampton’s The 1865 on April 26.
Watch the video for Tarot here:
“Tarot is the closing track from the album, and also the title track,” says Rob Reed. “It was written towards the end of the making of the album, when we had decided on the concept. I also thought that the album needed a bit of a respite at the end, after five very intense and dense tracks. It features a great vocal performance from Christina and a lovely guitar solo to end the album and hopefully make you want more. There are also two mysterious vocal guests at the end of the track; my fellow Chimpan A sidekick Steve Balsamo, and Cyan/Tiger Moth Tales legend Peter Jones. It’s a treat to hear three of the best vocalists together.”
“We’re doing two intimate shows at the end of April to coincide with the release of the album, which is on April 10. These shows will feature Christina, Chris Fry and myself performing tracks from our back catalogue and new tracks from Tarot. The first half will be acoustic, stripped-backed arrangements and talking about the new album; the second half will have a more electric performance. The evening will open with an acoustic set by Chris Fry performing tracks from his new solo album, along with his brother and Magenta bass player Dan Fry.”
