Ahead of their September EU/UK tour, Pile have shared a new version of their album track “My Employer“. Speaking about the new version, frontman Rick Maguire, says “This is the version of the song that generally sits better with the rest of our live set. Because I still feel strongly about the song’s sentiment, I really appreciate that it’s form carries some dynamic versatility.” The forthcoming tour follows the release of their highly acclaimed 7th album, ‘Green and Gray‘, and will see the band play a run of 5 UK dates in Oxford, Leeds, Glasgow, Bristol and London with a headline show at the Moth Club. The full list of dates so far is as follows: 08/09/19 : Paris FR – Frisson Acidulé @ Theatre de Verre TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE

Speaking about the new record, frontman Rick Maguire says, “I’m just trying to figure out where I’m at with the whole thing. Living like this never ceases to be strange. I’m doing exactly what I want to do and I love it very much, that’s stayed there for me, but I’m just watching things change around me as I go. I’m a mid 30s guy on that line, and these are my own emotional observations on those feelings. I put a lot of energy into making these things that are about, on some level, how I feel, but the feelings themselves are like riddles, so the songs are the best answers I can come up with. I put a lot of myself into it. I think it’s a good honest piece of work.” ‘Green and Gray’ is out now via Exploding In Sound Records – Order HERE ![]() Album artwork by Lindsey Boss ‘GREEN AND GRAY’ TRACKLIST |
