Following a stint out of the public eye after a succession of acclaimed singles, Ginger Snaps is back with his new record, Attention Seeker.

Due for release this Friday, the single is the first new music from Northampton multi-instrumentalist, writer and producer Jay Brook since 2018’s With Or Without Her.

Attention Seeker is also the first track which will feature on Ginger Snaps’ debut album which is due out later this year.

With past tracks including Anorak, Modern Man and Paranoid all helping to establish Ginger Snaps, past singles releases were picked by BBC 6 Music and BBC Introducing as tracks of the week.

Ginger Snaps also featured on Annie Mac’s New Names list, on the Radio X playlist and performed at festivals including Reading & Leeds and The Great Escape.

However, in the heart of all the momentum, Jay became increasingly disillusioned and decided to stop and take time to write an album based ‘Maximum Honesty’.

It’s fitting that Attention Seeker takes a critical look at the role and value of celebrity in modern society.

This is Ginger Snaps at his most brutal, with harsh guitars and cutting lyrics laced in cynicism.

When writing the album Jay started by sticking a Post-it Note that said Maximum Honestly on his computer screen. This theme of vocalising the ‘unflinching real’ runs throughout all of the new material.

Another single will follow Attention Seeker in the coming months before the album is released.

Attention Seeker is out this Friday and will be available on the regular streaming platforms.
