Brighton Indies PORRIDGE RADIO Break Up – Listen To New Goosebumps Tearjerker ‘DON’T WANNA DANCE’

30 January 2025

Much lauded Brighton indies PORRIDGE RADIO led by soul-stirring songstress
Dana Margolin announced a few weeks ago that they call it a day after 4 albums
with last year’s superb Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me
as the most recent one.

Very surprising and very sad news. They were
a wholehearted, perfervid and committed
rock-pop force getting better and better
with every album.

They’ll say goodbye soon with an EP,
named Machine Starts To Sing.

Margolin: “Porridge Radio are breaking up. The one-time Band To Watch announced the bummer news today while sharing “Don’t Want To Dance,” the lead single from one final EP. That project, titled Machine Starts To Sing, will be out in about a month, and Porridge Radio
will play out their final run of tour dates early this year.”

This is the last new music from Porridge Radio and marks the end of the band. The songs on this EP are an important part of Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me, and mean a lot to us. We are excited for you to hear them. This band has been our life, we’re family now. These tours will be our last. Thanks so much for listening.”

Along with the bad news comes the first track from that planned EP.

In the light of the split-up DON’T WANNA DANCE is a most gripping,
goosebumps pearl. An emotive power ballad. A heartbreaking tearjerker.
