Double-Sided Singles Release
by Gingersnap | damian-lewis.com | February 17, 2023
Stop the presses! Damian is participating in Record Store Day 2023 with a special release. The format will be a 7-inch record, what industry folks refer to as a 45, with an A and B side (flip-side) of music recordings “Zaragoza” and “Never Judge A Man By His Umbrella.” Do you know what artist has the most US double-sided singles with each side reaching Billboard Top 40? That’s right, Elvis Presley! This special release is not available for purchase online on the day of the event so visit your local store on Saturday, April 22, 2023 in the UK. View a list of participating UK stores here. Stores may choose to sell releases online after Record Store Day, but there is no guarantee. According to Rough Trade, any remaining copies will be available for online purchase beginning at 8:00 p.m. BST on Monday April 24, 2023. You can also try Townsend Music online record store here. Damian’s album will be released on June 16, 2023.
Very very excited to have my hands on my special edition 7" vinyl for @RSDUK, featuring two tracks from my upcoming album Mission Creep. Get out and support your independent record stores and if you fancy it… grab a copy! #RSD23https://t.co/S4vmfw7Y3v pic.twitter.com/IjciMhZBHg
