Luke James Williams Shares New Single ‘Full Moon’

Rising British indie-folk artist Luke James Williams shares his brand new single Full Moon, the latest single to be lifted from his upcoming sophomore album, Limes Hotel - out on April 17th. 
 
A cautionary tale of greed and the dangers of not knowing where to stop, where one blurs the line between desire and destruction. A song that explores temptation and control, where blind ambition and doubt circle each other. A relatable storytelling that is flawlessly conveyed through Luke's rich, emotionally-charged vocals which soar passionately over the captivating production. 
 
Accompanying his gorgeous vocals we have lush guitar strums that are nicely intertwined with subtle beats, rich textures and a haunting, Kate Bush-esque outro that come together to create an overall memorable listening experience. 
 
Speaking about the song, Luke James Williams said,
“Full Moon is about the dangers of not knowing where to stop in our pursuit of what we want. Gluttony can lead people to do very stupid things that put themselves and others in grave danger. The hunter becomes the hunted in this part fable, part cautionary tale.

 
Alongside the release, Luke shares the Matthew Oaten-directed music video which features two ballet dancers in pursuit around London’s Barbican.

 

 

Speaking about the video, Matthew said,
When I listened to Full Moon, I was struck by the sense of pursuit running through it — the idea of desire becoming predatory. I saw it as a reflection on greed, competition and the futility of capitalism, and wanted the video to express those ideas physically. I’m grateful to Luke for trusting me to follow that instinct and create something true to the song.
