History


Porridge Radio was started by Dana Margolin, who prior to starting the band was attending open mics, and songwriting in her bedroom. She formed Porridge Radio as a way to express herself by using inspiration from the sea and her seaside home of Brighton. The band was formed with Maddie Ryall on bass, Georgie Stott on keyboard, and Sam Yardley on drums.
The band performed a live session for Marc Riley's show on BBC Radio 6 Music in May 2019 and again in February 2020.
They were signed to US independent label Secretly Canadian in December 2019. In January 2020, they announced their second album and their label debut, Every Bad, which was released on 13 March 2020 to critical acclaim. Later that year they released three singles; "Good For You" was co-released on 2 July 2020 with the artist Lala Lala, "7 Seconds" was released on 14 September 2020, and "The Last Time I Saw You (O Christmas)" was released on 8 December 2020.
Bassist Maddie Ryall left the band in March, 2023. In the following year the band announced a new tour, they released a new album "Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me" and a single "Sick Of The Blues".
