Final single release for [dweeb]

All those lives inspired, all those crowds left smiling and now three minutes of pure truth and beauty in the form of ‘My New Hero’, the final single to be released by the band before they end for good in September 2011.

[dweeb] have always worn their hearts on their dayglo sleeves, and ‘My New Hero’ is no different: full of truth, full of challenge, full of bouncing beats and an infectious melody. Could there even be a better encore?

Having spent nine years turning up faith and energy with their fans on the road - as well as serving up treats from the studio - [dweeb] know that this is the right time for them to end: "After so many years it does feel strange to end," says lead singer Tim Alford.

"But we do all feel that it’s the right time. We have devoted nine years of our lives to this - and grown from teenagers to adults in the process. It has been a privilege and an honour to make music that has made people smile, or laugh, dance or just feel like they’re not alone.

"So there’s a sense of sadness, but of peace as well. It’s been an incredible adventure, and we will always be grateful to our friends and fans for joining in with us. But there’s a time for everything... "

Of course, the band will leave a hole. 2010 was a massive year for them, with the release of their album ‘Feels Like Dynamite’, their single (‘It’s OK’) and a 39-date tour across six countries in front of 25,000 people.

And ‘My New Hero’ will ensure that they leave on a real high. Released on Monday 23 May, ‘My New Hero’ will be supported by a farewell tour that will see the band on the road throughout June, July and August, in both the UK and mainland Europe.
