Tell us how long you’ve been making music?

“Collectively as Idle Noise we’ve been making music for the last four or so years, individually a lot longer.”

What’s been some of your highlights so far on your musical journey?

“Selling out Manchester ‘Deaf Institute’ in January 2020, shortly after supporting The Enemy’s Tom Clarke’s sold-out hometown show in December 2019.”

Your single is called ‘Ghosts’. Have you ever seen one?

“Ben (frontman) sees Dead People.” 

Tell us more about the single. Is there a story attached to it?

“‘Ghosts’ is a track relating to a long distance relationship that eventual crumbled. Hence the “too far to hear me, too far to listen”and “harder, together’ in the chorus. 

We think it’s our best work yet, and hope everyone likes it as much as we do.”

Ghosts in the snow Too far to let it go Fall towards the memories of you You're too far to hear me Too far to listen Cry down on the floor And its hard to break free Too hard not to listen Bring yourself back here We fall, more More than ever Harder, together Reaching out to a life once led Its too hard to let it go Hearts Still breaking over Over and over again Time after time We fall, more More than ever Harder, together And you're too far to hear me Too far to listen I die behind closed doors And its always on repeat My only vision Its you Its always you We fall, more More than ever, I'm yours forever Recorded at RML Studios, Wolverhampton Produced, Mixed and Mastered by Craig Davies at RML

What albums do you never get tired of listening to?…

…”Courteeners – St Jude, Sound of Guns – Angels and Enemies, The Twang – Jewellery Quarter”

What can we expect from you this year?

“Potentially another single release later in the year and we’re hoping to get some shows sorted. 

We’ve got three lined up September through to December but it’s all a question of whether they’ll still be going ahead. We’re struggling to book anything ‘cos nobody really knows what’s happening at the minute. We just can’t wait to get out and play on stage again.”

Thank you, Idle Noise. Have a listen to ‘Ghost’ which is out now on all main platforms, that’s the spirit! https://outnow.io/t/idlenoise
