After dazzling us with their 2022 debut album, Nothing’s On But Everyone’s Watching, Scottish alt-rock band, Daytime TV are ready to usher in a brand new era with new single, “Jessica” via Kartel Music Group.
In true DTV fashion, “Jessica” is an energetic, guitar-driven anthem for those who are still emotionally entangled with the memories of a past love. Leaving elements of mystery and the art of pining after someone long after the track ends, “Jessica” is set to put Daytime TV on the radar of listeners everywhere.
“I realised there was nothing stopping me from saying painful things out loud,” shared vocalist Will Irvine. “That felt like a big corner to turn as a songwriter and opened up all sorts of other dark wells and distant lights. It’s been pretty mad delving into the past and digging up those nostalgic memories, for better or worse. Sometimes a happy memory can be the saddest thing because it’s gone. I don’t like thinking about ‘what might have been.’ It’s pointless and doesn’t help anyone, but if your brain goes there it’s hard to reel it in. That sudden feeling that you’d do anything to turn back the clock and re-run something. It can be bittersweet looking back.”
