DIYsolation: #19 with Declan McKenna
Streaming live to your sofa on Thursday at 5pm!
With GIRLI taking over our Instagram on Tuesday, we’ve got Declan McKenna joining in on the fun too, hosting his own DIYsolation session over on our Instagram at 5pm on Thursday 21st May!
Currently gearing up to share his second album ‘Zeros’ later this year, he explained of the upcoming record, “I’ve been listening to a lot of old Dylan records, these really raw recordings, and really appreciating that energy. I just wanted to get in a room with a group of musicians and not get it too ‘right’. The sound to me developed in that way. There’s a lot of ‘70s references, a lot of Waterboys and Crosby, Stills and Nash, but it still feels modern to me. It definitely feels like a natural progression from the first one.”
Set to be loads of fun, tune into our Instagram at 5pm on Thursday to watch!
