What once started off as a bedroom project of Dana Margolin, is now a wild and intense live band that creates songs with poppy melodies with a ragged punk edge to them. Porridge Radio is often referred to as a DIY band. They recorded numerous demos and recorded their first album “Rice, Pasta and Other Fillers” in 2016, which turns out to be a fitting title for the material on it. That album wasn’t recorded in a bedroom but in a garden shed, coincidentally.
In 2020 their second album “Every Bad” came out. The four-piece band from Brighton explores on this record how they want to exist in relation to others, how vulnerable they can be and how this affects the outside world. It’s a profound yet funny record, using their own, eccentric and somewhat strange way of offering a hand to each listener that struggles with conflicts in their heart.
