hovercraft unveil new single, The Promised Land

Grimsby indie band hovercraft, disbanded in 1996, re-emerges with The Promised Land—a stunning AI-powered re-imagining of their lost track New Pine Overcoat.

The song reinvents moody 90s indie as vibrant, horn-laced R&B, featuring soulful female vocals and rich harmonies. Using original chord sheets and demos, AI reconstruction reveals the band’s visionary songwriting, now more resonant than ever.
