Jake Shears Shares New Single ‘Too Much Music’

Jake Shears is back today with the incredible new single Too Much Music - the first taste of upcoming album Last Man Dancing, which will be released on June 2nd via Mute. 

 

It's impossible not to fall in love with Jake's lush vocals and how expressive and dynamic his delivery is, oozing confidence and sensuality from start to finish. Too Much Music is an experimental mix of glam rock overture, disco groove and soulful harmony, that asks why you’d ever stand still in life, when “there can never be too much music for me.” 

 

This upbeat, feel-good gem is accompanied by a captivating music video, directed by Callum Macdiarmid, which sees Shears in suitably subversive form, with cinematic and unexpected results.

In Jake’s own words, Last Man Dancing is

my ultimate house party. Presented in two distinct halves, it chronicles a night’s journey from sing-along dance anthems into the deeper, darker corners of my living room. Electro-pop, tech-house, poppers-fueled disco, it’s MY afters and YOU just got the address. We can be as loud and late as we want… and while not everyone might make it to the end, it’s the last ones dancing who are rewarded with the most magical moments of the evening.
