The album is a follow-up to Declan’s EP Liar which was released last May. The full-length album was recorded in London and LA alongside renowned producer James Ford of Simian Mobile Disco (Depeche Mode, Artic Monkeys). The song “Listen To Your Friends” was produced by Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend; the track, “Paracetamol” was produced by Neil Comber; and “Brazil” was produced by Max Marlow. Declan, an adept songwriter and multi-instrumentalist wrote most of the songs on the 11-track LP. See below for full tracklist.The album is available for pre-order digitally here.

Tickets for these dates are on sale now and available here.
