Debut physical release from Colchester's Anorak Patch on Nice Swan (the home of Sports Team, Silverbacks, Hotel Lux, FUR, Courting, and Malady). Keyboardist Effie Lawrence formed the group in late 2019 with high school friends Luca Ryland (drums), brother Oscar (guitar), and bass player Eleanor Helliwell. The drummer being just 15, and the oldest member 18, the new single continues to show the band’s immense musical talent at such a young age.
Delilah is a joyous three minute pop nugget that is perfectly formed. The guitars are jagged and the drums busy and sits perfectly next to Blondie, The Breeders and Elastica. The flip Blue Jeans is just as instant and could easily have been the A-Side.
