As This Many Boyfriends prepare to take their lively indiepop and Northern charm around the country with Allo Darlin’ and The Cribs later this week, they’ve also released their new single ‘Starling’ which is available through the wonderfully imaginative form of a hand-drawn fanzine and you can now read it for yourself using the links below!

Complete with recipes, wordsearches, quizzes and a link to their own mixtape, the whole fanzine was created by their own fair hands.

‘Starling’ was written and recorded with This Many Boyfriends’ friend Peter Sykes, and this release is dedicated to him.

You can stream both ‘Starling’ and its B-side ‘Just Saying’ here
