Ones To Watch 2020: Porridge Radio

porridge radio

From a simple bedroom project to a fully-fledged four-piece indie punk-rock band, Porridge Radio feature on the Ones To Watch list as they gear up for the sophomore album.

Since kind of forming accidentally in Brighton with that common phrase ‘Oh you do music, can I do that with you?’, the band have been picking up a lot more attention since the release of their debut album Rice, Pasta and Other Fillers in 2016.

Nirvana’s biographer and NME have heaped praise on the young quartet as their rock anthems and dreamy beats prepare to release their second album Every Bad which is out on March 13th. With its announcement this month, Porridge Radio dropped a new single ‘Sweet’ which has been described as “another leap forward” for the four-piece. And of course, this album announcement means a tour is coming in March!

Listen to the latest single ‘Sweet’ and all of the other currently announced ICM Ones To Watch artists on our Spotify playlist! Every day this month we’ll add another band to the list.
