We're delighted to be included in Porij's run of intimate UK dates previewing material from their forthcoming debut album for Play it Again Sam records.
'You Should Know Me', real;eased on 30/10/23, is the first single from the album and a great first taste of what will be a huge 12 months for the 4-piece, who have carved a niche at the forefront of Queer-led dance-pop.
Porij had a massive 2022; releasing the outlines EP; selling out London's iconic Heaven; performing a much-hyped Glastonbury set; and cementing themselves as burgeoning darlings at both press, radio and streaming.
Earlier this year they supported Coldplay on a run of stadium shows including Manchester's Etihad Arena. Porij 's new material is co-produced by the legendary David Wrench (Frank Ocean, The xx, Young Fathers).
