Brilliant Sanity
The follow-up to the band’s acclaimed debut, Breakfast, was written in their Homerton studio and recorded in South London with producer, Dan Carey (Bat for Lashes, Kate Tempest, Nick Mulvey). Watch an exclusive album trailer HERE. The art of songwriting has been the driving force behind Brilliant Sanity, the process of crafting of the immaculate pop song, the dogged pursuit of the perfect hook. The result is an album that appears fastidiously and impeccably made, but also charged with joy. Now a four-piece made up of singer and guitarist Tommy Sanders, his brother Jonny on synths, Pete Cattermoul on bass and Hiro Amamiya on drums, the process of touring has honed Teleman into a spectacular live act and brought about the decision to record the new record in a very live and spontaneous way.
Brilliant Sanity is a welcome nod to what has been, with a firm eye on the horizon.
Loaded with more jingles than a sleigh at Christmas, ‘Brilliant Sanity’ is synth pop at its most intentionally addictive.
The emergence of Teleman in 2014 felt like something to get excited about. The U.K. quartet's stream of infectious early singles—including the sublime "Cristina"— pointed to something very special.
