FAIRCHILD - Stay Young

"I've constantly got Delamere on repeat, I'm personally a massive fan and I know they are catching the attention of the right people, watch this space"
ROB ADCOCK, BBC INTRODUCING

“It's easy to see Delamere really making a name for themselves”
LOUDER THAN WAR

“ professional, technically smooth as silk, layered and intricate, yet there is a raw and emotive edge providing veracity and an underlying darkness and yearning that always gets me”
BACKSEAT MAFIA
 

With DELAMERE's festival season now all wrapped up, new single 'Heart' is set to provide one last dose of shimmering Summer sun ahead of their UK Tour dates this Autumn.
 
Though they formed in the Midlands, Stoke's Delamere are a band met with open arms anywhere they go. Adopted by Manchester, welcomed by Sheffield and recently, even that there London has got in on the act. Having spent a Summer playing various festivals across the UK, most notable of which saw them play every date of Dot to Dot, the band are now looking ahead to the inevitable first album. Before that however, still riding high on the praise that was heaped on their Bright Young Things EP earlier this year, Delamere have rerecorded one of their earliest releases in order to whet appetites just a little more.

More polished than its original iteration, 'Heart' sees the return of the band's emphatic percussion, bringing with it swathes of optimistic synths, rumbling bass and singer James Fitchford's fraught vocal delivery. Where previous singles, 'Bright Young Things', 'Headstrong' and 'Do You Want Me' all offered up a moodier, more frenetic side to Delamere, hinting at both a more electronically-driven direction and a more subdued introspective approach to their lyricism. Following on from those, 'Heart' feels more like a cathartic release; its vast chorus providing a rich landscape that's difficult not to revisit.

With Delamere's festival season all but wrapped up, 'Heart' will provde fans with one last dose of shimmering Summer sun ahead of the inevitable onslaught of Autumn releases. And with the likes of Artrocker, Louder Than War and Backseat Mafia all championing the band for bigger things, it's the perfect track to see where Delamere have been, and more importantly, to see exactly where they are today.

In 2014, Gold Coast six-piece FAIRCHILD began a series of pre-production sessions, with each band member contributing ideas, unhindered by genre expectations. FAIRCHILD worked individually and in small groups, at times swapping instruments, sharing half-baked riffs, beats, bites and grooves during an exacting four-month period of brainstorming and noticed parallels between their recordings and the songs of the 80s bands they’d always loved.

By early 2015, FAIRCHILD began recording what would become their debut album under producer/mixer Catherine Marks (Foals, Wolf Alice, Alex Lahey). The band then packed their bags and moved halfway across the world to Manchester, UK. A city in which they had no following, no homes and no source of income - in order to shake up their senses and focus on touring, performing and finishing their record.

After two years, FAIRCHILD returned home and released their debut album ‘So Long and Thank You’ on August 4th, 2017 - a collection of songs that traces their experiences from Australia to the UK, and back again.

In the lead up, FAIRCHILD released three EPs and multiple singles, with ‘Relevance’ and ‘Start Again’ entering the Spotify Viral 50 and FMQB SubModern Charts in the US, respectively. The band has toured Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, and North America, playing showcases at Canadian Music Week and Music Matters Live. During their stay in the UK, FAIRCHILD embarked on a nation-wide tour with MOTHXR, supported The Human League on their ‘A Very British Synthesizer’ arena shows and opened for US rockers MUTEMATH on the European leg of their 'Vitals' tour.

Currently spread across the world in various locations, FAIRCHILD released new single ‘I Said’ on April 30th, 2020 - along with a bunch of older material to commemorate 10 years as a band. During this time, they've supported a whole range of bands locally - including Red Riders, Neon Indian, Cassette Kids, The Medics, Northeast Party House, Parachute Youth, Cub Sport, Battleships, Nantes, Canyons and played at the Gold Coast Big Day Out.
