Cameron Picton’s My New Band Believe Sets April 10 Debut, Releases ‘Numerology’ and Announces Tours

The former Black Midi co-writer unveils an acoustic-led project born from a fever dream, featuring a full string section, minimal effects, plus contributors Kiran Leonard, Caius Williams, Steve Noble and Andrew Cheetham.

Overview

  • The self-titled album arrives April 10 via Rough Trade, marking Picton’s first major release since Black Midi’s indefinite end.
  • New track “Numerology” lands as a standalone single that appears as a bonus 10-inch with a special LP edition and on a limited Deluxe CD.
  • Picton leads the lineup with contributions from Kiran Leonard, Caius Williams, Steve Noble and Andrew Cheetham across eight album tracks.
  • A press release describes the record as almost entirely acoustic with the barest electronic processing and a full string section shaped during an illness-spurred fever dream.
  • Headline dates run April 28–May 5 across the UK with stops including Glasgow, London and Oxford, followed by a North American run May 29–June 7 with shows in Philadelphia, New York, Montreal, Toronto and Chicago.
