Is Tropical's new single, 'Lies', will be relased through Kitsune/ Co-Op on October 31st, 2011. The follow up single to 'The Greeks', Lies is the third single from debut album 'Native To', which was released in June 2011.
The saucy black and white video for bouncy track Lies was directed by Jonathan Leder. In between footage of a bird flying, there are clips of girls dancing or in the throes of passion.
Is Tropical formed in 2009. The mask wearing London based trio consists of Gary Barber (Vocals / Guitar / keys); Simon Milner (Vocals / Guitars / Keys) and Dominic Apa (Drums). Their debut single 'South Pacific' was mixed by LEXXX, who has worked with superstar Gwen Stefani and Crystal Castles.
