Very happy to share the video for Luminous Giants by Berlin-based animator Dan W Jacobs.

This album is about shaking off these projected lenses of the past and taking steps to become our authentic selves. Our best effort at speaking honestly about who we are at this moment in time.

We hope you enjoy it. GGP x

Shout out to the amazing recording/production team of Joe Reiser and Brendan Williams who’ve been on this journey with us for so long but somehow keep getting better.

Necessary Fictions are the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves to help us navigate through life.

Very special “big ups” to Daudi Matsiko. We’ve been talking about collaborating for a long time & we finally did it! Thank you to Rakhi Singh & Manchester Collective. Working together felt so natural & we were buzzing to hear the arrangements being played live in the studio at The Arch.
June 20, 2025 at 9:01 AM
We are thrilled that our new album ‘Necessary Fictions’ goes out into the world today! This album explores new paths and builds on previous ones. We wrote it for you, but we also wrote it for us and it was important that we followed that little spark of inspiration, wherever it wanted to take us.

It was a pleasure to work with Rakhi in the studio; hearing the arrangements come to life was an absolute joy for us and we’re very proud to have Manchester Collective on our record. Pre-order/save here: gogopenguin.lnk.to/necessaryfic...

Making a record is a team effort, and we’re very lucky to have had our long-time sound engineers and co-producers Joe Reiser and Brendan Williams in the studio. Their combined set of skills and understanding of what we’re trying to achieve are second to none.

It’s been a joy to collaborate with some incredible artists & friends on this record, including Daudi Matsiko, Rakhi Singh & Manchester Collective. These collaborations felt so natural and easy and we’re really proud to have them both feature on our album.

It was an absolute joy to record our first ever track with vocals from our good mate @daudi-matsiko.bsky.social. ‘Forgive the Damages’ came together so naturally that we knew straight away getting Daudi onboard for this song was the right choice.
