John catches up with Declan McKenna to talk about his latest album ‘What Happened To The Beach?’ Declan McKenna first saw mainstream success in 2015 following the release of his debut single ‘Brazil’ and winning Glastonbury Festival’s Emerging Talent prize. While blending topics of politics and social issues with his indie-pop sound through his first two albums, ‘What Happened To The Beach?’ introduces us to a new world, this time looking inward and drawing on Declan’s personal growth as a musician. As well as opening up his hugely varied bag of demos, musical sketches, and jam sessions, Declan shares stories of his time working in the studio with producer Luca Buccellati, talking through the unusual sounds and fantasy locations that inspired his writing. Tracks discussed: Mulholland’s Dinner & Wine, Breath of Light, Mezzanine LINKS TO EVERYTHING TAPE NOTES linktr.ee/tapenotes Listen to ‘What Happened To The Beach?’ here.
