London sextet SixToes have pulled off something of a coup by tempting Depeche Mode star Dave Gahan to sing on their new single ‘Low Guns’. “Dave would always be very positive after listening to our remixes for their Sounds Of The Universe album so we invited him to sing on ‘Low Guns’ and to our delight he immediately said ‘yes’,” recalled cellist Anne Carruthers. “In fact he went one step further and also added a harmonica part to the end of the track.” We’re delighted to get a rare chance to feature Gahan on FFS – even more so given this slow-building chamber folk epic is an absolute corker. ‘Low Guns’ is out next month, with an album, The Morning After, to follow at the start of 2014.
