Good Neighbours - Blue Sky Mentality

Good Neighbours’ debut album 'Blue Sky Mentality' is pure indie-pop sunshine – 14 tracks built for dancing, shouting along and pretending everything’s a-ok for 45 minutes.

Formed in late 2023 by Oli Fox and Scott Verrill, the duo channel big feelings through even bigger choruses. From the bouncing piano of opener 'Keep It Up' to the lighters-up finale of 'The Buzz', it’s relentlessly upbeat. Even when it leans into grief, loneliness and the general chaos of growing up, it stays wrapped in hooks and handclaps. There’s whistling ('Home'), mid-00s indie disco sparkle ('Ripple', 'Starry Eyed'), and lyrics that scream "nothing but blue skies" even when the clouds are obvious.

Good Neighbours are built on catharsis. They take emotional weight and launch it skywards, whether through the stomping optimism of 'Keep It Up' or the hands-around-your-mates warmth of 'People Need People', a track about community and connection.
