DARLING CONGRESS

Darling Congress is a band that should have never existed, and what began as a reclusive solo project from Teenage Kicks founder Peter van Helvoort, quickly grew into a collaboration among friends and trusted allies in the strangest of times. Birthed out of long days on tour in 2019, the pandemic put everything on pause for Peter van Helvoort and producer Brett Emmons. Despite the isolation of 2020, what was meant to be found a way and Darling Congress came together at summer’s end with the help of Keegan Powell and Brent Wirth. The result is the group’s debut album “Jubilant Blue”,  a triumph over the darkness that can, if we let it, engulf us all.
