Declan McKenna returns with new song "My House"

Declan McKenna is back with new song "My House", which follows last year's Zeros album.

"My House" is McKenna's first new single of 2021, landing after his Zeros album that dropped in September last year.

McKenna says of the track, "I’m used to feeling isolated from people I want to see, it’s been a big part of my life since I was a teenager touring and so on. With "My House" I was diving into this daydream of running away and becoming reconnected. I was just having fun on a sunny spring morning making the best out of what soon wouldn’t feel so restful and calm. But it’s a light-hearted song and for me it is just that - remembering what it is to be lost in your thoughts in a good way, like being a child again."

"The song feels like it’s grown over the past year as I’ve grown closer with my loved ones for many reasons, and amongst all that I’ve moved house three or four times and even helped my parents move out of my childhood home. Being wary of keeping a personal life, talking publicly about those close to me is something I’m very careful about, but with this song I found a way to talk about love in a way that is fun but felt kind of real, and thankfully for my girlfriend it’s not set in an alternate reality dystopia or some stupid shit like that."

Declan McKenna's "My House" single is out now.
