A few guitar overdubs later and it became the fuzz-drenched boogie that closes out Side A of the record. As Cadogan puts it, having <em>Luggin&#8217; Hurt<\/em> there helped give the album its balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The video was directed by Robert Schober, whose credits include work with Metallica, Green Day, and The Killers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9A-UgOEaNjM?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-CA&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Luggin&#8217; Hurt<\/em> joins previously released singles <em>It Isn&#8217;t Soul<\/em> and <em>More Bad Miles Of Road<\/em>, which picked up support from WXPN, KCRW&#8217;s Morning Becomes Eclectic, Brooklyn Vegan, Rolling Stone France, and NME Japan among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Band Reborn<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Gravity Freeze&#8217; is Little Barrie&#8217;s sixth studio album and the first released under the band&#8217;s own name since the death of drummer Virgil Howe in September 2017. That loss put everything on hold \u2014 and then the pandemic pushed it further. Eventually, Cadogan and bassist Lewis Wharton linked up with longtime friend Malcolm Catto (The Heliocentrics), a collaboration that produced two albums: &#8216;Quatermass Seven&#8217; (2020) and &#8216;Electric War&#8217;, released on Easy Eye Sound in April 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, with new drummer Tony Coote bringing a classic jazz, soul, and blues sensibility to the kit, the band has stepped fully back into the light. &#8216;Gravity Freeze&#8217; was recorded at Rat Salad Studios in Hornsey, North London \u2014 early demos were laid down in a friend&#8217;s Dalston studio surrounded by amps, drums, and art equipment before formal sessions kicked off. The hooks are sharper, the grooves deeper, and the atmospherics thicker than ever. Cadogan recorded the album alongside a packed touring and session schedule that included stints with Liam Gallagher and John Squire, The Black Keys, and THE THE, plus sessions at Easy Eye Sound Studios in Nashville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And speaking of The Black Keys \u2014 Cadogan is currently out on the road with them as additional guitarist for their U.S. spring dates before Little Barrie heads into their own European headline run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Gravity Freeze&#8217; is written and sequenced with vinyl in mind, and marks more than 25 years since Little Barrie&#8217;s first singles on Stark Reality. It&#8217;s a real full-circle moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pre-order &#8216;Gravity Freeze&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/ees.ffm.to\/lb_gf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Little Barrie Tour Dates<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>05\/20 \u2014 Nottingham, UK \u2014 Rough Trade (In-store)<br>05\/21 \u2014 Bristol, UK \u2014 Rough Trade (In-store)<br>05\/23 \u2014 London, UK \u2014 Rough Trade East (In-store)<br>08\/15 \u2014 Norwich, UK \u2014 Suffield Summer Fiesta<br>09\/18 \u2014 Bedford, UK \u2014 Esquires<br>09\/19 \u2014 Nottingham, UK \u2014 Bodega<br>09\/20 \u2014 Birmingham, UK \u2014 Hare &amp; Hounds<br>09\/22 \u2014 Newcastle, UK \u2014 Cluny 2<br>09\/23 \u2014 Glasgow, UK \u2014 Stereo<br>09\/24 \u2014 Manchester, UK \u2014 YES<br>09\/25 \u2014 London, UK \u2014 Dingwalls<br>09\/26 \u2014 Bristol, UK \u2014 Thekla<br>09\/29 \u2014 Brussels, BE \u2014 La Botanique<br>09\/30 \u2014 Hague, NL \u2014 Paard<br>10\/01 \u2014 Lille, FR \u2014 L&#8217;Aeroneuf<br>10\/02 \u2014 Rouen, FR \u2014 Le 106<br>10\/03 \u2014 Bordeaux, FR \u2014 Pole Invasion<br>10\/04 \u2014 La Rochelle, FR \u2014 La Sirene<br>10\/05 \u2014 Paris, FR \u2014 La Maroquinerie<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.littlebarrie.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Website<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/littlebarrie.bandcamp.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/littlebarrieband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@LittleBarrie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LittleBarrie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Seven minutes.
