London-based Indie Pop Duo Sparky’s Magic Piano will return with their brand new album Never Twice the Same Colour on September 9th. Ahead of it’s release, the band has shared the jubolent lead single “Last Supper.”
The super charming breezy indie rock single has some pep to its step with a high energy guitar sound that delivers some smart power pop sounds that have a bit of a 90s rock presence, tied with the ultra dreamy vocals that call to mind bands like Stereolab. If the rest of the album is this good, it’ll be one of the best under the radar release of the year.
About the new album, the band detailed:
This album was inspired by the lives of our friends, our families, even our pets and our fictional friends on TV over the past 3 years. We’ve written about the emotions and upheaval lockdown put us through, but also about the stories of heartbreak, miss-firing love, and abandonment that were still there during the pandemic, unaffected. Musically I wanted it to sound as far away from a home recorded/produced album as possible – so this meant replacing the synth bass from our first album with real bass, the 808 with sampled live drums, more live guitar, more live violin, cello and a trumpet for good measure!
