Ida Mae release new album 'Click Click Domino'

British folk-rock duo Ida Mae today release their highly-anticipated new album Click Click Domino as well as the record's final single 'Has My Midnight Begun'.

The record was inspired by their transatlantic travels during the release of their critically-acclaimed debut album Chasing Lights. Forced by the pandemic to cut their tour short, they ended up writing and recording Click Click Domino at their Nashville home while in quarantine last spring.

Ever the dream team, Ida Mae's Chris Turpin took on the production, while Stephanie Jean has crafted the art and other visuals. The album features electrifying guest appearances from Marcus King and Jake Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet on a few tracks, and drumming throughout by Ethan Johns.

Speaking about the new album, Ida Mae said, "Click Click Domino has taken on more meaning since it's been recorded. Being made across the pandemic in the shadow of such a momentous moment in history the freewheeling nature of how we chose to record these stories means even more to us now.

"Listening to it now the frenzy and adrenaline-buzz-exhaustion of the travel seems ever present to us. Our fascination and love of Americana, Blues and Brit Folk, the clash and collaborations we envisioned when recording it late into the night, is ours. We can feel the shadows of the artists that have soundtracked our journey in each song and can see each lyric as a hazy vision on the edge of our minds eye."

Alongside the new record, they have also unveiled the album's closing track 'Has My Midnight Begun' as the final single. Taking a more atmospheric and heartfelt route on this occasion, the pair channel a bold and captivating aura that mirrors solemn ballads with their own distinct brand of glittering blues-rock to create a wonderfully sweet and passionate addition to this new release.

Adding about the new track, they said, "With the uncertainty of everything in 2020 and 2021, so much had come to a standstill and it begged a lot of questions of people. We wanted something on the record that was dark and open feeling."
