Flying

Brighton alt/indie duo Elandra steps into a new era with the release of their high-energy single Days, Years & Months, landing 25th September 2025. Marking a confident evolution in their sound, the track amplifies the band’s trademark saturated, punchy drums and Revolver-era bass tones with fuzzier-than-ever guitars, and bold experimentation in vocal distortion reminiscent of Demon Days-era Gorillaz. The result is a vibrant collision of influences — think the shimmering euphoria of Empire of the Sun’s Walking on a Dream meeting the hypnotic build of Tame Impala’s Let It Happen.

Days, Years & Months (Radio Edit)

Stadium rock sized ballad, written and recorded inn 2025, digitally released 17.10.2025.
When your head is in the clouds
Your feet on shifting sands
Your long cherished dreams
Lie in pieces in your hands
And you can't find the flow
To where you want to be
I want you to know
That you can feed on me
I will be there
I'll be your friend
I'll heal your hurt
Make do and mend
Your broken heart
Your weary soul
Don't fall apart
I'll make you whole
When ambition turns to rust
Hope and heart corrode
A handful of dust
Becomes a heavy load
When your exit strategy
Takes you to a dead-end street
You can feed on me
I'll make you complete
Your open wounds
I'll stitch and seal
Your childhood dreams
I will fulfil
This veil of tears
This reverie
Will disappear
You can feed on me
Crushed by the weight of your own mythology
Trying to find a state of mind to set your body free
I will be there
Through to the end
I'll heal your hurt
Make do and mend
Your aching heart
Your breaking soul
Don't fall apart
I will make you whole

SLAVE TO THE ALORITHM

Feed On Me

Didn't Know About Andy

Over several years of my late twenties, me and one of my male friends secretly were attracted to each other but had to abstain due to some complicated social ties in our group. One year, we caved in and began what was quite a messy fling. I wrote this song throughout those years as a way to process the tangle of anxiety, excitement, anger but also lust that was tangled up in my stomach. After the fallout, I joked that it wasn't mine or his fault for the stupidity of it all, but that it was South East London's; because it is such a romantic place. This is my ode to that area, and the chaos of that time of my life. This is a jazzier route this time with my flatmate Jago on the guitar, and myself on the string section with my one violin.
