Lucky Iris – fall in love with the dj

“Going out was my first taste of freedom, and when I want to feel that again, I know where to go. I think it’s silly because I wrote this song after a night out with my best friends at a pretty cult bar in Leeds and the DJ played a track from ‘Black Rose’ by Thin Lizzy which is one of my favourite albums of all time. It’s nowhere close to the music we make, but it always takes me back to growing up and falling in love with music. I think to connect with music is to feel understood, and there’s something about standing right next to the speaker, hearing your favourite song and feeling like the DJ is there just for you. Maybe they are, but that doesn’t matter, what matters is how it makes you feel.” – Maeve, Lucky Iris

TRACK OF THE WEEK

“It was important for the new era of Lucky Iris to start with an exploration into what first got us into electronic pop music. As soon as I was old enough to even try and get into a club, all I wanted to do was go out dancing. It was my first taste of freedom which was so special to me – the first time, the music that got me there, and the rush of going out has always stayed with me.”  – Maeve, Lucky Iris
