It’s just been weeks since Gorillaz dropped their stellar comeback album, Humanz but they’re already sharing new material. Today the group has released a new song through its video via YouTube, is titled “Sleeping Powder,” and it’s a Disco-fied jam written and recorded by Gorillaz vocalist 2D.
As noted in a news release about it, the track was initially discovered by fans behind a pile of books in 2D’s bedroom in the Gorillaz app house he shares with bandmates Murdoc Niccals, Russel Hobbs and Noodle.
Gorillaz kick off the North American portion of the global headlining Humanz Tour July 8 in Chicago. See below for a full list of dates.
