Disclosure announce new album ‘Caracal’ & reveal artwork

It's a feline themed record

Published 9th Jun 2015

Disclosure have announced details of their eagerly-awaited second album ‘Caracal.’

Guy and Howard Lawrence unveiled the record via a YouTube video, which melds black & white footage of a caracal wild cat together with silhouettes and their trademark Disclosure faces.

The follow-up to their acclaimed 2013 debut ‘Settle’ will land on 25th September.

The brothers confirmed details of the album at the close of their inaugural Wild Life Festival in Brighton, which they curated alongside good chums Rudimental.

"A caracal is an incredible wild cat that I became fascinated with while on tour last year; I just love the way they look, their physical capabilities and their anonymity," Howard Lawrence said in a statement.

"It felt like a perfect fit for our Wild Life brand too, so the Caracal made perfect sense as the lead visual for the new album and over the course of recording, it also felt like a natural title for the new record too."

‘Caracal’ will feature the previously announced Gregory Porter collaboration ‘Holding On’ together with guest vocals from Lion Babe, Nao, Kwabs and more yet to be announced.

Disclosure debuted the track ‘Jaded’ during their Wild Life set, which featured Howard on vocal duties.

Their debut album ‘Settle’ was nominated for a prestigious Grammy Award and the Mercury Prize.
