Francis of Delirium - Run, Run Pure Beauty
Released 29th May 2026
Francis of Delirium follows up her acclaimed debut album with Run, Run Pure Beauty. Featuring the singles ‘Little Black Dress’ and ‘It’s a Beautiful Life’, it serves as an excavation of hope in bleak times. Recorded after coming off tours with both Bôa and Blondshell, the album was produced by Jana Bahrich (Francis of Delirium herself) and long time collaborator Chris Hewett, and mixed by Nicolas Vernhes (Deerhunter, Dirty Projectors, Silver Jews, Wild Nothing). Its eleven songs of discovery, despair and perseverance ultimately serve as a mirror on its creator and is a brilliant next instalment in the Francis of Delirium arc.
An artist who seeks to connect with her listeners on a deeper level, she’s made hope and inner strength central themes on her new album, Run, Run Pure Beauty. Jana says the title track is “an imagining of the world after it has been destroyed by humans and technology. Thrashing against what humans have left behind, ultimately the pure beauty of nature wins out.” Wanting to bring different perspectives into her songwriting with this record - informed by both her travels and the tumultuous times we find ourselves in - she’s also brought about a progression in her sound with these new songs somehow sounding larger, with undeniable harmonies and more orchestration.
“Jana Bahrich seems too young for this tremendous debut’s ambitious anthems…” Uncut, 8/10 'Lighthouse' Album Review
"Capturing a similar melancholy sparkle to indie favourites such as Japanese Breakfast and Snail Mail, Lighthouse's 11 tracks encapsulate both bittersweet, desperate yearning and a breathless new romance; throughout, the golden-hour world they live in is astonishingly vivid. Bahrich’s choruses, almost every one, are lump-in-your-throat gorgeous.” NME
"There’s a bit of Pixies and Snail Mail and the Beths in there, and maybe some Lomelda and Lucy Dacus and Built To Spill. You know, that really f*cking good shit." Stereogum
"In a time when the world often feels fragmented, Francis of Delirium offers a message of hope and unity.” Dork

Expected Release 25th September 2026 Some artists don’t ask permission; they just land in your gut and stay there. Some records arrive polished and pristine. Others bleed the moment you press play. On their debut album ‘Put A Smile On For Me’, the fast-rising London four-piece Keo choose the latter. Raw, bruised, and unflinchingly self-aware, their first full-length release captures the emotional fallout of love, guilt, shame, and self-destruction with a clarity that feels almost confrontatio...

Expected Release 21st August 2026 ‘Baby You’re A Winner’ is a perfect illustration of the elevated musicality of the album that bears its name. Linking up across the record’s twelve tracks with producer Ali Chant (PJ Harvey, Perfume Genius, Yard Act), Baby You’re A Winner showcases a real levelling up for Grandmas House: more layered and involved than their trio of previous EPs - Grandmas House (2021), Who Am I (2023), Anything For You (2025) - with a greater focus on the use of vocals and ha...

Expected Release 11th September 2026 Stoke-On-Trent’s most tuned-in and turned-out trio are releasing debut album Punch Card, which might be the avant-garde pop record of the year. Driven by a desire for sonic collage and bolstered by lateral thinking, ‘Punch Card’ is a crafty lesson in how, with touches of masterful manipulation, the collision of opposing forces can cause sparks to fly and an irrepressible need to dance. “Our aim is to undermine anything leaning too far one way or the other....

Expected Release 14th August 2026 ‘Massive Champion’ is the highly anticipated new album from Bristol’s Getdown Services, the follow up to cult classic debut ‘Crisps’. An odyssey of anarchic joy, seditious wit and boundless energy, the album finds Josh Law and Ben Sadler pushing deeper into the singular world they have been building for years, while opening up new emotional and lyrical ground. Written in green rooms, on long car journeys and in the gaps between relentless touring, it stands a...
