Formed in 2020, Neil Scott (Vocals), David Woolford (Guitar, Vocals), James Laing (Bass), and Nathan Searle (Drums) had a string of celebrated singles before unveiling their debut critically acclaimed EP ‘The Weekend Ritual’ in December of 2022, championed by the likes of BBC Radio 1, The Independent, RTE and others. The band embarked on multiple tours of the UK, earning a handful of rave live reviews along the way.
Their second studio EP ‘Present State of Joy and Grief’ was released in November of 2023 and picked by producer Jake Gosling (Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, One Direction, Paloma Faith) to be played in Hotel Chocolat stores worldwide.
Since their sold-out debut show in July of 2022, the band has gone on to tour the UK four times and have supported the likes of The Family Rain, Afflecks Palace, China Bears, Human Interest and The Luka State, and have played a variety of UK festivals. September 2024 will see Adult Leisure heading to Europe for the first time to play Sweden’s Live At Heart Festival.
The band’s upcoming single “Borderline” was recorded and mixed with Ollie Searle at Humm Studios and mastered by John Webber (known for his work with David Bowie, Duran Duran, and Coach Party). “Borderline” continues the rhythmic and textural elements of their previous EP while adding a heightened sense of urgency. The song features rich melodies, radiant synths, and explosive drums, with Neil’s anguished vocals cutting through the atmosphere. The lyrics explore the emotions following the end of a long-term relationship.
Borderline is due for release on August 15th and will be available on all major streaming platforms.
