PORRIDGE RADIO SWEET

Having covered the haunting Stolen Sessions live rendition of 'Sweet' by Porridge Radio back in September of 2018, we were more than a little excited to hear the finished recording. See-sawing between intimate lyrical confessions and face-melting onslaughts of guitar noise, the production on 'Sweet' is appropriately dynamic. With echoey backing vocals drifting in and out of focus beneath band leader Dana Margolin's heartfelt delivery Margolin explains:"Sweet is a song about holding grudges and learning how to have fun and letting go of an old version of yourself. I was feeling light-hearted when I wrote it, but when we came together to play it as a band, it suddenly felt really dramatic and exciting. When we play it live, the energy in the room always feels really intense, and then suddenly we just explode altogether and it always feels really good.”. Porridge Radio's Secretly Canadian debut Every Bad will be released on the 13th of March. -Holly Mullineaux
