LEEDS’ LUCKY IRIS RETURN WITH NEW POWER POP SINGLE ‘OH NO (I GUESS I DID IT AGAIN)’

ELECTRONIC DUO SHARE DEBUT MUSIC VIDEO AND ANNOUNCE FORTHCOMING ‘MAYBE I’M TOO MUCH’ EP

Leeds alt-pop duo Lucky Iris have announced their new single ‘oh no (i guess i did it again)’, a defiant, pop punk open letter exposing the ugly reality of following the beautiful game for women and LGBTQIA+ supporters.

Following the more downtempo, contemplative feel of previous single ‘23’; ‘oh no (i guess i did it again)’ pairs the pop punk empowerment of Avril Lavigne with snarling synth breakdowns reminiscent of Sleigh Bells in a three minute anthem that lays bare the difficulties that female and queer football fans face every day. Much of the accompanying video was shot at OOF Gallery located in the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and with the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup fast approaching, lifelong Spurs fan Maeve needs you to know that whatever the result, ‘this is harder on me than on you.’

Written and produced by the band, mixed by Richard Wilkinson (Adele, Kaiser Chiefs) and mastered by Antony Ryan (Oh Wonder), ‘oh no (i guess i did it again)’ is the second single from Lucky Iris’ forthcoming EP ‘maybe i’m too much’ which is set for release in July.

Maeve on ‘oh no (i guess i did it again)’:

“When you think football fan, you probably don’t think of me… but that’s the issue I think. Football has always been pushed as an inclusive sport, crossing so many barriers, an unspoken language to many, THE beautiful game. Except there are barriers… for women and queer people alike. I’ve done my hours of listening to every football podcast I could get my hands on but still when I opened my mouth people didn’t want to hear it. Enter ‘oh no (i guess i did it again)’ referencing me giving my many seemingly unwanted opinions on all things football, to people who really didn’t want to hear it.”
