Masquerade by Bananarama

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Pop legends Bananarama (Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward) release their single called "Masquerade" today! It is also the title track of their upcoming album Masquerade, which will be released July 22. The duo is celebrating their 40th anniversary this year. Their previous single (aka teaser track) "Favourite" was released at the end of April.


"Masquerade" is a different approach for Bananarama as the song is a bit downtempo, but not a ballad. The sound is epic electronica dream pop and the music almost sounds like the Pet Shop Boys produced it. The music video was filmed at a castle and it premieres on YouTube on Friday. 


In the meantime, you can listen to the song here ...


The album Masquerade will be released on July 22. Not only will it be released digitally, but on vinyl, CD, and cassette. Each format will be getting a different colored artwork. The CD will have green, the red and and blue vinyls will have red and blue covers, and the cassette will be purple. Order your physical copies and merchandise here. Here is the tracklisting for the new album ...
