about

Scottish Fiction Records are proud to present 'oil & water'; the second single to be taken from Glasgow indie four piece wojtek the bear's debut album 'a talent for being unreasonable'.

Following on from the success of their maiden EP, wojtek the bear tucked themselves away to work with in-demand producer Chris McCrory (Catholic Action) to record 'a talent for being unreasonable' at Shady Lane Studios in late 2017.

'oil & water' deftly mixes pointed percussion with gentle instrumentation as lead singer Tam Killean calmly broods that “one's too many, but a hundred's never enough.” Of the lyrics, Killean describes the track as being a song about addiction, be that to something or someone. “I think we all have those low-level addictions that we probably don’t even realise are there so it’s about sort of being aware of what you’re doing whilst also feeling like you can’t actually, or maybe don’t want to stop it."

'oil & water' is released digitally on 4th May 2018 via Scottish Fiction Records.
