Superfood have well and truly made their mark on music as of recent, but as the foursome gear up to release their debut album, there’s no time to rest: they’re already thinking ahead.

It’s back to the road following ‘Don’t Say That’’s release, although Superfood’s heads are still firmly planted in the studio. They’re hoping to bring a laptop back after gigs each night on forthcoming tours, with the intention of recording scrappy demos when the iron’s still hot. “Whether we stick to it or not, I don’t know,” admits frontman Dom Ganderton, but talk keeps turning back to future material, as if it’s first on the agenda. “Hopefully it’s not long before we put more songs out after this. We never want a huge gap,” he says. “The energy that we’ve got writing these last few years, we want to keep putting stuff out. You know when a band doesn’t put anything out for a while? We just want things to keep going.”

Momentum’s on their side, and it’s been with them from the beginning. Together, they call the past two years “bittersweet”, where they’ve developed under a spotlight, releasing music from day one. “We haven’t had those three or four years to learn each other or write loads of songs,” says the frontman. “What you hear on record from us - that’s us developing, that’s what we’ve got. It seems honest.

“You’re going to see different things happening,” he sparks. “We always have so many different ideas. It’s just honing it all in so we’ve got a really clear idea of where we wanna go. Or maybe we should do the exact opposite… ” he ponders, clearly excited at the possibilities that lie ahead.
