Jack Garratt has criticised Boris Johnson and the UK government on a brand new charity single – hear ‘Eton Mess (A Gaslight Anthem)’ below.Described as “a song out of pure disappointment and frustration,” the new track is Garratt’s first since 2020 album ‘Love, Death & Dancing’, released via Island, and also his first track as a fully independent artist.The new song is available via Bandcamp, with a percentage of proceeds going to the Trussell Trust. Explaining the motives behind the song, he wrote: “The resilience and brilliance shown by the majority of the public over the last two years has been empowering.

But, please, less is more next time.”Elsewhere, Garratt has become an ambassador for the live music charity Stagehand and has been raising
