Electric Monday

ELECTRIC MONDAY is a UK synth-pop duo blending shimmering melodies with bold 80s spirit and a modern emotional edge. Fronted by charismatic vocalist Sebastian Duff and driven by keyboard maestro Steve Jenkins, they channel the grandeur of classic pop into something fresh, cinematic, and deeply human. Raised in Manchester’s iconic music culture—Duff surrounded by Bowie and Visage records, Jenkins immersed in vintage synths from his BBC sound-engineer father—their sound reflects both heritage and innovation. Formed in Manchester’s underground club circuit, ELECTRIC MONDAY quickly attracted a cult following for their analog textures, hypnotic hooks, and neon-soaked live shows. Their debut single, “Nothing Left To Pretend,” is a bittersweet anthem about love, identity, and illusion—already called “a lost classic from the future.” Their upcoming album, The Policy of Truthiness, recorded between Manchester, Berlin and the Lake District, is being hailed as a defining electronic record of the decade. Tracks like “Suburban Halo” and “Digital Confessions” explore the beauty and anxiety of digital-age life with lyrical irony and emotional sincerity. ELECTRIC MONDAY’s sound sits between Pet Shop Boys sophistication, Duran Duran’s cinematic drama, and the intimacy of modern acts like Christine and the Queens—yet remains unmistakably their own. Poised for their European debut in 2026, they are emerging as the duo leading a new golden era of synth-pop.
