Matt Berry has issued a stream of his track Obsessed And So Obscure.

It’s lifted from his album The Small Hours, which is set for release on September 16 via Acid Jazz Records.

Berry says: “The album refers to the small hours before dawn when you and me worry about things. It can be an intensely quiet time and so all your thoughts and fears can be amplified.”

He’ll tour the UK with his band The Maypoles in October and November this year. The Small Hours is available for pre-order.
