Psychedelic pop with an anthemic punch, Wirrals The Dream Machine hit their comeback stride with outrageously infectious single Frankenstein, out March 14th on Run On Records. The single is a precursor to their second full-length album, to
be followed by a summer festival run including Liverpool Sound City, and their own headline tour.

After 2022s critically-acclaimed debut album Thank God! Its The Dream Machine a host of Radio DJs – namely Steve Lemacq and Stuart Maconie voiced their support for the group. It led to regular plays on BBC6music and Radio X, then live support slots with established big-hitters like The Coral, The Charlatans and The Mystery Jets,

before headlining their own run of gigs, ending the summer as The Lathums special guests at a sold-out Castlefield Bowl.
In a year filled with highs upon highs, the band made valuable use of time spent touring, absorbing music to throw in the melting pot of new material, namely the wild energy of Fontaines DC, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Blossoms, Arcade Fire and The War On Drugs.

Having grown up amongst the faded fairground glamour and beachfront arcades of their native New Brighton, Merseyside, they caught the ear of The Corals James Skelly while still teenagers and has been a constant influence. Skelly stepped in on full production duties for Frankenstein, recorded late last year in his own Kempston Street Studios.

Singer and primary songwriter Zak McDonnell explains Frankensteins weird and wild origins: Frankenstein is a confession of love from somebody disfigured by immaturity and misery. A helpless tale of hope and anguish. Heart to heart, man to monster. Its a pulsing teenage freak show romance driven by desperation and despair. I wanted it to sound like Phil Spector producing the Ramones in the 80s or a twisted take on one of the songs from Fraggle Rock.

All things considered, and with Frankenstein already garnering national airplay, 2024 promises to be The Dream Machines biggest year yet.
