Ahead of the release of ‘Blisters In The Pit Of My Heart’ on the 8th July, which is streaming in full now, Martha have unveiled the official video for the brilliant ‘Ice Cream and Sunscreen’.
“It’s song about getting it bad and getting it wrong,” the band explain. “Romanticising something that doesn’t exist. It’s an acknowledgement of some of the more murky places your mind goes when you’re figuring yourself out. Acting like a teenager (whatever that means) in your mid-twenties.”
