CLOUDS IN THE SKY THEY...

"All the songs started out as poems," says Margolin of the work that
became Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me (2024), "I wanted
to challenge myself." In a song, Dana argues, the writer can always hide
behind the tricks of the music and well-worn techniques such as repetition. "In
a poem, though," says Dana, "it's just words and that's it." Recorded in the
Somerset countryside in early 2024 by longtime Big Thief and Laura Marling
engineer Dom Monks, Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me is
Porridge Radio's new album and first new music in two years. The UK band's
new album is a coming-of-age moment inspired by burnout, the music
industry, the brutal collapse of a relationship and - crucially - Dana's own
increasing immersion in her craft as an artist.
