Porridge Radio’s Dana Margolin on Finding Herself in a Fog of Heartbreak and Exhaustion


Dana Margolin of U.K. rockers Porridge Radio says new album 'Clouds In the Sky They Will Always Be There For Me' represents a personal catharsis.

The close-cropped, blond Joan of Arc hairstyle she wore in previous years is now shoulder length and brown, and she punctuates her comments with an easy laugh. Clouds in the Sky finds Porridge Radio putting the hype of its 2020 Mercury Prize nomination well behind it and achieving a new level of artistry and sound. Her songs have become more sophisticated without sacrificing the emotional wallop of her earlier work — a conscious effort on her part, and one of the subjects she discusses below with Billboard, along with the visual art she also creates and her tendency to fall in love easily.
