The song was written on Thorpe's birthday day, shortly after Wild Beasts called it a day
Former Wild Beasts leader Hayden Thorpe today released his first single, 'Diviner'.
Thorpe said the new song was written shortly after the shock announced by the separation of the Wild Beasts in 2017, after ten years together.
Speaking of the new track, Thorpe said, "Divine became the first song and the divining wand of the sequel. There are, if we can wait for them, rare days of alignment.
"Divine was written that day, my birthday every day. The curtains were pulled for a moment, I went inside. To say that I am delighted to see the light of day would be a euphemism. "
You can listen to the new song and watch the video, made by Crowns & Owls, below.
Thorpe also revealed that he left the Lake District shortly after the decision to split the group and headed to California, where "Divine" was written. You can see the illustration of 'Divine' below.

The news that the band was breaking was a shock to the fans. In a statement, the group said: "The Wild Beasts are ending," they said in a statement.
"Our hearts and minds have been devoted to the group since adolescence. We have created something of our own and we have built a set of works that we support sincerely and sincerely. We four decided, for our own reasons and in our own way, that it was now time to leave this orbit. "
They continued, "We care about something precious and we do not want it to diminish as we progress in our lives. Thank you for your love and your energy and for helping us to do what it is. We consider ourselves remarkably lucky to have lived this dream. "
Formed in 2002, the band has released five acclaimed albums – the last being "Boy King" in 2016.
Following the announcement of the split, the group gave a series of farewell concerts, the last of which was held at the Hammersmith Apollo in London last February.
