Can’t wait!

My wife has played this record over and over and over again today. She is totally in love with it. Given as these plays won’t be registered in any streaming figures, it’s my job to tell @allodarlin.bsky.social & @slumberlandrecords.com that she is enamoured & says it’s “perfection”.

Can’t wait!

After that, we've got our biggest ever show (yikes!) on Oct 9th at EartH Hall! @allodarlin.bsky.social are in town in support of their new LP Bright Nights Support for this one comes from our old pals The Wave Pictures. Rumours of some very special guests are intensifying - it's going to be special!

*blushes*

Not too long now until this very special run of Allo Darlin' UK shows. Nottingham is sold out and the others are running low. Don't miss out, get your tickets now! li.sten.to/allo-darlin-... @allodarlin.bsky.social @fikarecordings.com

We can’t wait!!

This is excellent! Over here in the US you can find "Bright Nights" at your favorite local shop, including at these participating AIMS shops: thealliancerocks.com Lots of mail order options too, of course: li.sten.to/allo-darlin-...

We’re in the charts! Thank you everyone for buying/streaming, and for Tom @fikarecordings.com for releasing Bright Nights in the UK!

Allo Darlin's new album, the AOTY contender "Bright Nights," has been out a few weeks now and its warm, rootsy folk-tinged pop has been soundtracking the summer for many of us. It's so good to have them back! A co-release with our pals at @fikarecordings.com Get it here: li.sten.to/allo-darlin-...

It's 10 years since Departures, the debut album from Owl & Mouse, came out! The boldly open hearted yet delicate songs come straight out of the same school of Australian songwriting as The Go-Betweens, Triffids and Courtney Barnett. fikarecordings.bandcamp.com/album/depart...

🎧 popintherealworld.co.uk/post/there-is-always-plan-b-always The holiday season has checked in and the Pop In The Real World mini fridge is emptier than usual. Luckily great records from Roge West 11, Beth Hirsch, Flaer Sam Blasucci @allodarlin.bsky.social and Turin Brakes fill the gaps.

Super nice review of the new Allo Darlin' album from Rosy Overdrive. "Bright Nights" is officially in stores here in the US this Friday! "Allo Darlin’ have a wealth of history to draw from now, but 'Bright Nights' still has a lot it’s looking forward to as well. " rosyoverdrive.com/2025/07/10/p...

A reminder that we're going on holiday from July 23rd through August 8th. Mail order (and everything else) will resume on August 11th. We will be hitting the post office tomorrow and Tuesday, though, so don't be shy: linktr.ee/slumberlandr...

The Chime School / Autocamper tour kicks off tomorrow in London with a *free* early-ish show at Shacklewell Arms! Then on to Coventry, Leeds and Newcastle. Chime School also playing Glas-Goes Pop on Saturday night! More info and tickets here: linktr.ee/chimeschool @chimeschool.bsky.social

The Jeanines + Lightheaded UK tour roars into Brighton tonight at The Albert, then on to Exeter, Bristol and beyond! More info and ticket links here: linktr.ee/jeaninesligh... @jeanines-band.bsky.social @skepwax.bsky.social

Last weekend at Indiefjord I played a set of Dylan songs at the Bjørke church with the help of Elizabeth of @allodarlin.bsky.social - here are a few pics, courtesy of Sasha Maese. Big thanks to Silja, her family, and all the volunteers for making such an other worldly event possible. X Kip

Sending lots of love to the @skepwax.bsky.social crew who have their big weekender this weekend! Wish we could be there too!

Some lovely words from For The Rabbits about Allo Darlin’ and their new single “Cologne.” “…whether this is a brief return or the next step on a life long journey, it’s just a delight to say hello once more to one of the best bands around.” @allodarlin.bsky.social @fikarecordings.com

We've updated our monthly playlist! Listen via Bandcamp: bndcmpr.co/1bcb0546 or via Spotify: open.spotify.com/playlist/4rg... Featuring the new tracks from Allo Darlin' and Heavenly (blimey, we've been spoilt this week), Fortitude Valley, Stanley Brinks, Modern Nature and plenty more...

Not long until the new @allodarlin.bsky.social album! We've got a ltd edition marbled blue & purple in Europe, plus a black vinyl for the purists. There's a Rough Trade exclusive version too, yellow on transparent vinyl. In North/South America? -> @slumberlandrecords.com li.sten.to/allo-darlin-...

Three singles in and we think you'll agree that Allo Darlin's new album "Bright Nights" is a peach. We're releasing it on CD, magenta vinyl and *mail-order-only black vinyl* for the color-averse. Fika Recordings has you covered for the UK/EU. Out July 11, pre-order here: li.sten.to/allo-darlin-...

One of our favorite songs from Allo Darlin's new album "Bright Nights" is out today! "Cologne" was written for Cologne Popfest but inspired by many great shows in Germany over the years. It’s also a song about longing for Spring in the darkest months of the year. Love it! li.sten.to/allo-darlin-...

We’ve got a new song out! Listen to Cologne, we hope you like it 😍

It’s eaaaaasy! @slumberlandrecords.com @fikarecordings.com
