Butcher Brown shares the spacey “Ibiza” from their next album, Letters From The Atlantic. The instrumental single builds tension with subtle percussion and ambient keys interspersed with a floaty saxophone. “Ibiza” is part of the band’s announcement for the new album, which takes its inspiration from jazz, soul, rock, funk, and more. Melanie Charles, Yaya Bey, Mia Gladstone, Victoria Victoria, Nicholas Payton, Neal Francis, and Leanor Wolfe have guest appearances. The band explained the dance music influence of “Ibiza” in a press release. 

“We recorded that joint with the idea of it tapping into something you’d hear in a dance club in New York or the UK. We’re all producers, so we’re thinking of the samples a DJ would find and chop up into a groove – but do it all live, no samples, reimagining it in our own way. There was something magical about the recording of this song, cosmic is the only way to describe that feeling. The excitement and joy everyone felt listening back in the control room was a clear sign we should get this out to the world. We hope ‘Ibiza’ takes you somewhere warm and offers a level of comfort.”

Butcher Brown released their last album, Solar Music, in 2023. Letters From The Atlantic was recorded last summer at Spacebomb Studios in their hometown of Richmond, Virginia. The eclectic jazz group’s album officially drops on March 25 on the Concord Jazz imprint, and they will kick off a tour of the United States.
