Following on from their recent album Sad Happy, Circa Waves have recently enlisted rising singer-songwriter Alfie Templeman for their new summerly chilled single Lemonade. Today, the band have released a retro inspired video for the track. Watch and listen below.
Lemonade is exactly the song we need right now. With summer almost gone, the fresh track boasts with tropical guitars, laid back drums and delivers pure optimism and escapism. The track reminds us that we should all drink a bit of lemonade every now and then.
Speaking of the video, Circa Waves frontman Kieran Shudall comments:

Alfie Templeman adds, speaking of the collaboration:
Lemonade to me is such a heartfelt track, about everyone coming together and loving each other in times where everything seems so difficult. I definitely related to this in lockdown which is why I was so excited to hop on the track!
