New Proper. single plus EU dates!

Brooklyn trio Proper. have just unleashed their rather brilliant, brand new single Huerta from their forthcoming new album The Great American Novel.

The track sees Erik explore his relationship with his ancestry and his Mexican heritage.

"We're coming up on our third album and I realized I hadn't written about my Mexican heritage at all. My grandfather immigrated to the US in 50s but died before I was born, cutting off the only tie my family has to Mexico. I grew up romanticizing it and it wasn't until I was older, when my mom and her siblings spoke out about their dad without the filter one uses when speaking around children, that I began to critically examine what heritage and lineage meant. 'Huerta' is about looking at the least traveled part of your personality and day dreaming about the possibility."

The track is taken off the new album The Great American Novel. Recorded and produced by Bartees Strange, the album lands on March 25  and is available to pre-order now.

The band have also added a ton of EU dates to follow their UK run in April! Tickets available now.
