Oscar signs to Wichita, streams new track "Daffodil Days"
Oscar has announced that he's inked a deal with esteemed institution Wichita, and lobbed a new song into the ether to celebrate. He also plays a pretty special show tonight at The Lexington as part of the Best Fit Five Day Forecast.
Speaking to The FADER about the track, the North Londoner explains the very modern birth of "Daffodil Days":
"It all started out on one of those dark winter evenings, when everything felt wrong. I was having a pretty bad day and as I was texting a friend, the word 'difficult' turned to 'daffodil' by a stroke of autocorrect genius. It really made me laugh and somehow made a lot of a sense. The song represents that day for me. The melancholy in knowing that it won't work but that there is always hope and future, of the Daffodil Days ahead. Something which is easily forgotten,"
Oscar plays Best Fit's Five Day Forecast tonight (13 January) at The Lexington alongside GET HOT and Febueder. Tickets are selling fast, but you can still grab them here.
