Manchester indie rock/ indie pop band Delights have shared their new single “What’s on Your Mind” and its accompanying music video.
It’s another taste of their upcoming debut full-length ‘If Heaven Looks A Little Like This‘, due to be released on 17th January 2025 via Modern Sky UK. Pre-order your copy here.
With ‘If Heaven Looks A Little Like This’ produced by Michael Smith (Wolf Alice), Delights are stepping into an electrifying new world of sound introducing a wider sonic palette that reflects their collective tastes through an appreciation of legacy and their hometown forebears, with vibrant nods to funk, soul, disco, psychedelia, classic rock, and stadium-sized indie-pop.
Although there are subplots of love and relationships dotted through it, at its heart, this is a record dedicated to the experience of being in a band. “I was quite conscious that, if we want it to stand our own test of time, I want to know where I was and where we were as a collective,” says Maxwell, the band’s chief lyricist. “So lyrically, it’s trying to explain that story of us doing this and having fun, but where we are right now – skint, working hard, trying to be in a band and do cool things that playing will allow us to do.”
