Noel Gallagher From Later…with Jules Holland, via YouTube
Declan McKenna was a fresh-faced kid when he played SXSW in 2016. I saw a packed one-man show at the British Music Embassy that year–word then was that he’d wanted to bring his band over, but they couldn’t get out of school commitments. Seven years later a 24 year old Declan is prepping a third album. Check out “Sympathy” ahead of its release on the latest show. No details are available yet on the new record, but the artist himself promises it’ll be “hella weird.”
Also featured this week was the apparent next single from Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. Noel addressed “Open The Door, See What You Find” when he played Germania last month. Not long before, he also played it with an expanded flock of HFB on the BBC’s Later…With Jules Holland:
