Porridge Radio Share a New Track ‘Back To The Radio’

Porridge Radio have announced details of their third
album ‘Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder To The Sky’ and shared its debut track
‘Back To The Radio’. The band has also announced their biggest-ever UK headline
tour, as well as a series of small in-store gigs to coincide with the release
of the album.

Dana Margolin wrote 'Back To The Radio' prior to the release of the band's critically acclaimed 2020 album 'Every Bad,' during a period when she felt like “a lot of things were coming that I wasn’t sure I knew how to handle”.

“The song grew out of a feeling of intense loneliness
and being unprepared for what everybody was promising me was about to happen –
and a strong desire to escape without knowing what I wanted to escape to,” she
said in a press release. “To me, there’s a huge feeling of catharsis in this
song, of letting go and letting it sweep you away.”

Margolin's sister Ella directed the video, which shows
the singer waking up in a room with papier-mâché furniture being gently removed
one by one. Later, she joins the rest of Porridge Radio in a room painted with landscape
scenery, where she is moved around by people clad entirely in black. Watch it
in the video above.

Secretly Canadian will release 'Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder To The Sky' on May 20.

“With this album, the feelings of joy, fear and
endlessness coexist together,” Margolin said of the record as a whole, adding
that its title “symbolises the ups and downs of human life, of virtue and
transgression”.
