Manchester-based band Larkins have unleashed a video for their new single “if + when” which appears on their upcoming debut album JCOY. Speaking about the song, frontman Josh Noble explained:
“This song is my apology. It’s me taking ownership and describing my failures as a friend. Around 6 months ago, during lockdown, I received a call to say someone I was close with had been missing for a few days and I was asked whether I knew their whereabouts. I had this horrible feeling that I would never see them again. After a night of searching, someone found them in a bad way in a place they should never have been. I was totally crushed and spent weeks reflecting on whether I’d done enough. I spent a lot of time reflecting on how selfish people can be, especially boys, and how we must get better at talking to our friends. It’s about us seeing the signs and being open to having honest and hard conversations.”
