RUFUS DU Sol "Say A Prayer For Me" Released From New Album 'Bloom'

RÜFÜS DU Sol has unveiled the fourth single "Say A Prayer For Me" from their new album Bloom, which will be released in 10 days on Jan. 22.

The new track is another soothing, blissful piece of dance music from the Australian-based group. Jon George, Tyrone Lindqvist and James Hunt craft an atmospheric instrumental with soft percussion and ethereal synth pads that glide under the cooing of Lindqvist to some female. Say a prayer for me / Let my body sleep tonight / You were there for me girl / Standing by my side / Turn the page for me / I'll see you on the other side / Know that there's a place for me girl," croons the singer.

"Say A Prayer For Me" finds the middle ground between their crowd-pleasing summertime tracks like "Like An Animal" and the lengthy, almost deadmau5-like progressive songs such as "Innerbloom."

Unlike Atlas, their 2013 debut album, they went to Berlin in 2014 to make this new LP. They had finished the music, but were struggling to find a lyric until they made the return back to Sydney.

"I was on the keys," Geroge tells EW. "Tyrone was in the vocal booth for a half hour on repeat, and then he just started singing these words. The actual chorus line is what came out of his mouth, just improvised."

The Australian trio have not announced many tour dates this year, but they are already getting tabbed for some pretty big festival dates. The trio have been booked to play Coachella in April and are joining Firefly Music Festival later in June.
