From supporting Fickle Friends on a UK tour to landing a Love Island sync before the track even dropped, søftbleach are quickly becoming one of the most exciting new forces in UK indie-pop. Formed at the end of 2024, the London-based trio Darla Jade (vocals), Dustin Dooley (multi-instrumentalist/producer), and Jan Simson (drums), blend years of production experience with a bold indie-pop sound. Dustin and Jan bring over a decade of writing, producing, and performing with artists worldwide, while Darla’s solo success, with press in Billboard and Notion and collaborations with Gorgon City, Kaskade and more, gives the band a distinctive vocal centre. Their live momentum has grown fast, from their debut headline show to UK support dates and their first full tour in 2025. With early playlisting from Spotify, Apple Music and BBC Introducing, and their debut EP Neverland landing 28 November, søftbleach are carving out a world entirely their own.
