About the Album:

‘What Happened To The Beach?’ is the follow up to Declan Mckenna’s acclaimed second album ‘Zeros’, which debuted at #2 in the UK album chart. The album was recorded in LA and produced by Gianluca Buccellati, best known for his work with Arlo Parks and Lana Del Ray. ‘What Happened To The Beach?’ is a record full of tone and colour, the majority of which was written with no ambition bigger than making people feel good. Musically, it’s a bit weirder and wonky, and the sound of a songwriter enjoying himself and gleefully defying expectations.

“My third album ‘What Happened To The Beach?’ is out 9th February.

My favourite third album yet.

In my top three albums I’ve ever made of all time.

…and I will be going on tour in the UK in 2024!
