Thunder have announced plans to release their new single titled Christmas Day.
It’s set to arrive on December 1 via earMUSIC and will be backed by a 2017 version of their classic track Love Walked In and acoustic takes on Low Life In High Places and Heartbreak Hurricane.
Christmas Day is described as “more a timeless ballad than a traditional festival carol and reveals the band in a new light.”
The statement continues: “The heartfelt, melancholic song features a stunning and evocative arrangement from guitarist Luke Morley to accompany the unique voice of singer Danny Bowes.
The single will be released as a CD Digipak and on digital formats, while the official Thunder store is offering exclusive, limited fan items and bundles, including a 7-inch two-track vinyl as well as a coloured 10-inch 4-track vinyl.
Thunder will support Alice Cooper on his upcoming German tour, while the band will play two festive shows at Wolverhampton’s Civic Hall in the UK on December 15 and 16.
