The next Echo and the Bunnymen record is going to feature a collaboration with Chris Martin.
There is no word on the name of the collaboration, but the album is going to be called ‘The Fountain’ and the first single will be ‘Think I Need It Too’, which is due out on September 28.The album isn’t due for release until October 13 (although that’s always subject to change).
