Orchards - Bicker *Pre-Order

Release Date Friday 16th May 2025
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.

Brighton’s indie math-pop trio Orchards are back with their sophomore
album Bicker; a bright and brilliant collection of songs that combine the
glittering bombast of their early work laced with an underlying bittersweet
attitude.

Recorded with Jack Wilson (Fickle Friends), Bicker has all the hallmarks
of a band that have been through a tumultuous few years: releasing their
debut album in 2020 at the onset of the pandemic, break-ups, heartbreak,
chronic illness, and depression. These themes strikingly play out in a
similar style to Orchards’ previous work: featuring glorious swathes
of infectious choruses and blissful, pastel-hued guitars that balance
effortlessly between indie-pop sensibilities and math-rock inspired time
signatures. This time around, although the sound is clear-cut, Orchards’
lyrics are anything but.

The band are approaching 2025 as a new beginning — with a brand new
album, full UK tour and festivals on the horizon — and have proven time and
again with a determined attitude that they’re unstoppable.
