Following a triumphant 2014 and ahead of a month of U.S. touring, fast-rising Scottish duo Honeyblood have premiered an all-new recording, “No Big Deal.”

“We had a couple of songs that I really loved, but I didn’t think were quite right for the next album,” explains frontwoman Stina Tweeddale. “A double A-side single felt the perfect way to get them out there.” The first recordings with new drummer Cat Myers, the special standalone single release comes ahead of a packed touring schedule for 2015, which sees the band spending over a month in the U.S., taking in co-headline stints with 2:54, as well as SXSW and a support tour with legendary fellow Scots Belle and Sebastian. With details of the physical release and “No Big Deal” to arrive soon and an epic live schedule taking them into the autumn, 2015 looks to be another action-packed year for one of the most talked-about new bands around.
