WATCH THE OFFICIAL VIDEO HERE

HEADLINE EUROPEAN/NORTH AMERICAN TOUR BEGINS IN MAY

“Who knows where Dray goes in the future but sometimes the fun is in catching artists in an inspired creative moment.”  

- The FADER

“Tobias Dray perfects the art of DIY” 

- EUPHORIA. Magazine

Coming down from the espionage vibes of his last single, Tobias Dray today releases the atmospheric track “Bottle of Bombay” along with an official video. Juxtaposing tender melodies with glitchy production stylings, Dray further proves his propensity for sidestepping any mold he comes close to fitting into. Listen to the single HERE / watch the official video HERE.

In the distorted haze of the music video, viewers see Dray as the cinematic protagonist at his breaking point. Directed by Nathan Lau, we get a glimpse of the more editorial side of Dray, perfectly paired with the turbulent storyline of the song itself.

On his new release, Dray said, "This song is about a toxic person that always brings problems, but you’re still seeing them because of the short, good feeling they bring. It’s only when you’re alone that you realize how bad of an influence that person can be on you."

Prior to the release of “Bottle of Bombay,” Dray introduced listeners to the cinematic, bass-driven world of “Espada Primo.” These two releases, plus everything else he has up is sleeve, are heavily influenced by his affinity for anime. Fans will have a chance to hear these songs live starting in late May as Dray kicks off his headline “HMU” Tour of Europe and North America. Show dates and ticketing information can be found below.
