The Hand Grenade
A 3 track soundtracks single (10m 27s) — released April 25th 2025 on Mark's Music
Mark is back, four years after his last release, The Caterpillar Club, his new project, New Town Ghosts, sees the continuation of the novel with a soundtrack concept. This time the book is accompanied with 10 songs, featuring lyrics that represent the narrative journey of the book. Over 40 musicians contributed to the project which was recorded live over a period of three years. The fourth single from the project is called The Hand Grenade. The narrative follows the experiences of 10-year-old boys who set off a hand grenade in a tunnel and fall into a coal mine. The songs are designed to feel like the music that played on portable radios in garages and gardens during a summer that was once regarded as the hottest on record. Reservoirs run dry and swarms of ladybirds gather round the cracks in the ground. Will they get out alive? Think Kes meets Stand By Me. Get ready for and exciting ride!
