Fiction

Armed with the freedom and space to experiment, Lean In was self-produced in her own East London studio and sees Art School Girlfriend set to move from cult bedroom artist to one of the UK's most vital artist/producers operating at the moment, tackling alternative rock, electronic pop & experimental ambient sounds in her most cohesive work to date. Lean In arrives at a time where her audience has grown exponentially, partly due to her diverse involvement across the music scene at large - contributions to the work of Daniel Avery, Lane 8, Jasper Tygner and Ghostpoet; being chosen by Bonobo to DJ at his Outliers series at Drumsheds; touring the US with both The Japanese House and Marika Hackman; a notable DJ set for HOR; producing and engineering for up-and-coming post-rock band Pencil; the tastemaker curation of her 5-years-in-the-running monthly radio show on Foundation FM.

There's a direct connection between the tension in Telenova's music and the people who create it. The light and the dark, the sky and the dirt: these aren't just sonic motifs of their forthcoming sophomore album, The Warning, but reflections of the band's reality. The Warning strips away their cinematic mystique to reveal raw, chaotic, yet deeply human truths. Gritty, uneasy, vulnerable - the sound of three people holding together as their world fell apart, finding unity despite their differences. The Warning expands Telenova's universe into something more urgent and exposed. It's the sound of faith colliding with failure, beauty forged in exhaustion, and three distinct voices finding harmony in chaos.

Chilli found acclaim with his band Palma Violets, who skyrocketed to fame, landing on NME covers and topping charts, but when the band unexpectedly ended in his early twenties, Jesson was left disoriented. He tried to rebuild with a new project, Crewel Intentions, and later ventured into pop songwriting out of financial necessity. Feeling disillusioned and creatively lost, Jesson stopped listening to the music that once defined him-until Fontaines DC invited him on tour. This rekindled his passion for raw, honest music. Inspired, he began crafting his most personal project yet alongside Rupert Greaves: Dead Dads Club, with 'Don't Blame The Son For The Sins Of The Father' being the first fruits from this new incarnation.
