Bristol-based rock outfit Little Thief have released their latest single ‘Lost In Love’ today, September 16th 2022, taken from their recent debut album ‘Under The Patio’ released September 17th 2021.
Formed in 2015 by long-time collaborators Charlie Fitzgerald and Rhii Williams, Little Thief have created their own, unmistakable brand of raw, gritty and soulful alternative rock. They've previously played live sets at Glastonbury and Liverpool Sound City Festival, and the 2021 release of their debut album 'Under The Patio', recorded with Stew Jackson (Massive Attack), saw them receiving support from the likes of Far Out Magazine, RTE, Steve Lamacq (BBC 6), BBC Introducing, XS Manchester and Amazing Radio.
Lost In Love, and its subsequent B-side I’m On Fire, is being released to celebrate both Fitzgerald and Williams’ recent engagement announcement, and the fact that their celebrated debut album ‘Under The Patio’ has been out almost a year to the day. The duo began their romantic relationship 7 years ago, with the formation of Little Thief quickly following suit.
Speaking about the single, vocalist and lyricist Charlie Fitzgerald says, “We wanted to write a song that explored the unspoken, unexpected, sultry passion that creeps in when you're 6 feet deep.”
In true Little Thief fashion, their engagement party will be coming in the form of a very special gig at The Lanes, Bristol on October 1st, on the last day of their upcoming UK tour.
