In this episode, I sit down with Adult Leisure, alt-indie band whose debut album, The Things You Don’t Know Yet, blends dancefloor energy with heart-on-sleeve emotion.
We dive into the stories behind the record: growing up, loss, love, the pressure of youth, and the strange comfort of nostalgia. The band open up about their latest single “Boy Grows Old”, collaborating with The 1975 and Sam Fender’s John Waugh, and how their music became what they call “happy music for sad people.”
With over 250,000 streams and support from BBC Radio 6, The Line of Best Fit, and even a Made in Chelsea sync — Adult Leisure are quickly becoming one of the UK’s most exciting new voices.
This is a conversation about reflection, resilience, and the moments that shape who we become.
