Lime Garden Announce New Album ‘Maybe Not Tonight’: Hear “23”

Brighton’s Lime Garden unleashed “Maybe Not Tonight” in November, and it was the band’s first music since their 2024 debut full-length One More Thing. Now, the quartet is announcing their sophomore effort Maybe Not Tonight and sharing “23.”

“’23’ the concept was born from a dream I had where I was talking to my younger self,” vocalist and guitarist Chloe Howard says. “In the dream I was essentially ripping into my own personality and lack of success. ’23’ the song was born on a rainy January afternoon, a Happy Mondays–inspired jam paved the way for the main bassline.”

About the LP, which is produced by Charlie Andrew (Wolf Alice, alt-J) with additional production from drummer Annabel Whittle, Howard continues:

The album is about a night out, from start to finish. As the night progresses, you’re having a great time, until your ex walks in with someone else. You hate the way you look but rather than going home, you press the big red button and get even more drunk. Eventually, you take yourself home full of melancholy, chaos and anger.
