Glass Animals dish hip-hop infused track, ‘Space Ghost Coast To Coast’

Eclectic music band Glass Animals team up with emerging UK talent Bree Runway on a stellar collaborative release, “Space Ghost Coast To Coast,” off their acclaimed third album Dreamland out now via Universal Music.

With hip-hop flair, “Space Ghost Coast To Coast” is a beat-bopping, pop-locking single that will make listeners bob their heads and sing along to its catchy lyrics. The genre-defying single infuses a range of sonic elements from both dance music and pop, putting the release in a genre class all its own.  Paired with a trippy music video that features a number of visual effects, the track is a sheer original that soars into an otherworldly dimension of space. 

“‘Space Ghost’ was about a period of my life when I started listening to loads of 2000’s R&B and hip hop. Dr. Dre, Missy Elliott, Justin Timberlake, N.E.R.D, Busta Rhymes, etc. A lot of the sounds take from that era of music. When making the track, I could hear some of that classic 2000’s R&B harmony in the chorus…but I couldn’t quite pull it off. So, I went for some of those Dre/Eminem-style group chanted stacks. When I heard Bree’s voice a couple months ago, I was like…this is it. This is the voice that can do that timeless R&B thing. At the same time, she does it in her own fresh way. Basically, having Bree on this track is a dream come true. Thank you Bree.”

 Dave Bayley of Glass Animals

“Space Ghost Coast To Coast” is taken from Glass Animals lauded third full-length album Dreamland, which entered UK charts on its opening week at #2 and charted inside the top 10 in the US, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland. The album garnered over 160 million streams in the first week of its release alone.

To coincide with the release, the band is also gearing up for a North American “Dreamland Tour.” Kicking off on August 30th in Lewiston, NY, the tour will be embarking across North America well into 2022 with festival performances at Bonnaroo, Life Is Beautiful, Firefly Festival, Outside Lands, and more. Tickets are currently available now at the band’s official website.
