New song coming from David Gilmour

Posted June 12, 2020 by Floydian Slip

The upcoming audiobook of Polly Samson‘s “A Theatre for Dreamers” will include the song “Yes I have Ghosts,” a new single from husband David Gilmour.

Gilmour has been writing with Samson since Pink Floyd’s “The Division Bell” (1994). He provides original incidental music throughout the audiobook.

The single is inspired by a character in the book, set on the Greek island of Hydra, and was co-written by Samson.

“We didn’t set out to work together on the audiobook, but lockdown meant I had to narrate and I’m grateful to David Gilmour for stepping in to the producer’s chair,” says Samson “We wanted to explore the creative possibilities of the format and produce something new, refreshing and innovative.”

Publisher W.F. Howes Ltd. lists the release date of the audiobook as Sept. 1.

Uncut and Prog magazines have both published a date of June 25, though it’s unclear whether that’s the release date for the audiobook or the stand-alone single.
