'SENDING ME UR LOVING'– THE NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO FROMTHE JUNGLE GIANTS+ 20-DATE INTERNATIONAL TOUR STARTS JAN 28+ 'HEAVY HEARTED' ARIA-CERTIFIED GOLD
After the massive success of ARIA-certified gold single 'Heavy Hearted’, The Jungle Giants are back with indie dance number ‘Sending Me Ur Loving’.
With trademark jangly guitars and a beat that won’t let you sit still, ‘Sending Me Ur Loving’ was written and produced by the band’s lead singer Sam Hales. Over the next few months, The Jungle Giants will be sending some loving all around the world as they embark on one of their biggest tours yet, with dates announced for the US, Canada, Mexico, UK, France, the Netherlands and Japan.
"Sending Me Ur Loving has been with me for so long, it’s been such a pleasure watching it finally form into a complete track that represents the new production direction. The chorus had originally been attached to a different song, and by some stroke of luck clicked right into this beat. It’s an ode to a feeling of self confidence, and essentially a love ditty at the same time," says Sam of the track.
The single is accompanied by a suitably loved up video, starring The Jungle Giants as staff at a couples intimacy retreat. The brainchild of Melbourne filmmaker Julian Lucas, the video features couples in matching cult-like tunics, awkwardly trying to mend their relationships.
Director Julian Lucas said, “I wanted to create a quirky world where the Jungle Giants run a manor where they help couples find their fire again. We shot the whole film on an old 16mm zoom lens to give it a filmic look, and really celebrated long zooms throughout. This also ties in nicely with people coming together or drifting apart.”
‘Heavy Hearted’ was played on high rotation on radio around the country, saw multiple sold out headline shows in The Jungle Giants’ biggest Australian venues to date, and is sure to place well in the upcoming triple j Hottest 100. The band’s last appearance in the Hottest 100 resulted in 4 songs in the countdown, a huge feat for an independent Australian band. You can still vote for ‘Heavy Hearted’ in the 2019 triple j Hottest 100 here.
The Jungle Giants are still on a career high after the release of third album Quiet Ferocity, which produced two ARIA-certified Platinum singles 'Feel The Way I Do' and 'Used To Be In Love', two ARIA-certified Gold singles in 'Bad Dream' and 'On Your Way Down' and two sold out headline Australian tours.
