Playing with themes of jealousy and attachment across minimalistic soundscapes, the Brighton-based quartet still maintain the calm and serenity that has grown to define their discography, while adding layers of experimentalism that are far removed from your average indie-electro outfit.
‘I Want To Be You’ merges hi-hat heavy drum patterns with a tightly locked guitar and vocal fusion – drawing attention towards relatable lyricism that will undoubtedly push crowds to sing-along during their upcoming headline tour in February.
Tippi (bass) lays a simple pattern of root-notes, anchoring the low end and acting as a perfect example of how less is more. The unembellished and simple nature of Lime Garden’s newest offering allows delicate harmonies to shine through, complimenting the distorted noise-laden nature of their accompanying single ‘Nepotism (baby)’. Lime Garden’s open-ended flair has attracted the attention of fans from various musical backgrounds – a crowd that has continued to expand and diversify with each release.
Lime Garden have grown and perfected their sound, unleashing a new era of musical maturity that has already seen the 4-piece signing with So Young Records, performing internationally and featuring on the cover of DORK magazine back in September. Despite the band gliding effortlessly from strength to strength, ‘I Want To Be You’ is written about attending a Wolf Alice gig at the age of 14 and wanting to be them – a humble reminder that Lime Garden have their inspirations and role models too!
‘I Want To Be You’ and it’s adjoining music video is out now, and the track will feature on the debut album ‘One More Thing’ – out on February 16th 2024 and available to pre-order now!
