South London duo Sandhouse today share new single ‘Pollyanna’, a glimpse into a forthcoming project due to be revealed over the coming months.

Opening with glassy electronics before rupturing into distorted guitars and blown-out alt-rock catharsis, ‘Pollyanna’ pairs Anna Sutherland’s featherlight vocals with lyrics that feel seductive and darkly playful – romantic fantasy gradually curdling into something more obsessive and difficult to control.

Speaking about the track, the band say: “‘Pollyanna’ is about becoming numbed by the cinema of infatuation, and using the fairytale of romance to blindly ignore any signs of reality.”
