Porridge Radio announce new album 'Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder To The Sky'

Following on from the release of their highly-praised 2020 LP 'Every Bad', Porridge Radio have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving in the coming months.

The new full-length 'Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder To The Sky' is being previewed by the new lead single 'Back To The Radio', which comes accompanied by a stunning Ella Margolin-directed video, and is set to be released on the 20th May via Secretly Canadian.

Speaking about the new offering, singer Dana Margolin said, "'Back To The Radio' feels like a huge introductory hello or a big ceremonial goodbye. I wrote it at the end of 2019 when we were gearing up for the release of Every Bad and I 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. To me there’s a huge feeling of catharsis in this song, of letting go and letting it sweep you away."
