Canterbury are proud to announce the next single from their critically acclaimed second album Heavy In The Day as the huge sounding ‘Something Better’.The track is a straight up rock song for us’ Says vocalist Mike Sparks. “Lyrically, ‘Something Better’ sums up a lot of what the whole album is talking about, it almost gets the past completely off our chests so we are totally ready for the future. The song asks the question “is there always something better?” which is a classic human feeling, like when we ask ourselves ‘is the grass always greener?”

The single will be available to buy digitally from all online sites from 24th September. Due to unprecedented demand, the album Heavy In The Day will be available in HMV and all good record stores including Amazon and Play.com from August 13th.

Canterbury will be touring with Deaf Havana this November before heading out on their own headline run later that month. The 14 dates will take them all over the UK in support of Heavy In The Day, the album which enjoyed charts success in the Rock itunes chart fluctuating between the number 1 & 2 spots all week.
