Delights Releases New Song “What's on Your Mind”
Manchester-based indie-pop band Delights, consisting of Adam Maxwell (vocals), Ben Kirkland (bass), Ben Squires (guitar), Leo Willis (drums) and Cameron Stephenson (percussion), released fourth single called “What's on Your Mind” from their upcoming debut album “If Heaven Looks A Little Like This” on October 31, 2024.
The album is set to be released on January 17, 2025 via Modern Sky.
Along with the release of the song, the band announced they will support British alt-pop band Blossoms in Manchester on November, 20, 2024.
The track was written by Adam Maxwell, Ben Kirkland, Ben Squires. Cameron Stephenson, and Leo Willis. Produced by Michael Smith.
The band frontman Adam Maxwell said of the song, “Lyrically, the song has themes surrounding frustration within the music industry & the inevitable competitive nature that is synonymous with being a musician and what that entails. This was the first song that we came upon through our album writing sessions in France last summer and was absolutely one of the most fun and fulfilling tracks that we made for this record. The song is full of energy from the get-go and we can't wait to be able to work the song into our set in a live setting.”- The debut album comprises 12 songs, produced by Michael Smith.
The band lead singer Adam Maxwell said of the album, “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. 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.” -
