Lime Garden announce second album, Maybe Not Tonight

The new release will follow Lime Garden's 2024 debut album One More Thing, with "23" arriving today as the lead single. Speaking about the track, vocalist and guitarist Chloe Howard explains: “‘23’ the concept was born from a dream I had where I was talking to my younger self. In the dream I was essentially ripping into my own personality and lack of success. ‘23’ the song was born on a rainy January afternoon, a Happy Mondays–inspired jam paved the way for the main bassline.”

Produced by Charlie Andrew (Wolf Alice, alt-J), with production contributions from drummer Annabel Whittle, the album draws from several influences including Bon Iver, A.G. Cook, Scissor Sisters, Lily Allen, and more, to bring a dancefloor feel to the collection.

Discussing the album, Howard adds: “Part of the ethos of the record is about addressing, rather than ignoring, all the shitty things you’ve done. You have to actually face up to yourself. “By making this record, we’ve come back to what it felt like when we started the band. When we were 17 and thought we were the shit, and nobody could tell us different. We’ve got this fresh feeling that we deserve to be here. That’s a special thing.”
