Antidote

It’s a great day in the neighbourhood for Scott Verrill and Oli Fox—better known as Good Neighbours—as they head up Antidote this week with “Weekend Boy”. The pair first struck a chord while recording as individual singer-songwriters in neighbouring East London studios. Since deciding to merge under one banner in 2023, they’ve cultivated a warm, nostalgic sound that exploded with January breakout hit, “Home”. The new single, a twinkling slice of heartfelt indie pop, closes out their self-titled debut EP (out now). “This song taps into a different side of us,” Verrill tells Apple Music. “We had a string of songs last year that felt super cohesive and nostalgic, but we wanted something to give some light and shade to the EP. The past few tracks were so loud and expansive that we just wanted to run in the total opposite direction—make it as intimate and as possible, so you can really tuck into the vocals and lyrics.” Hear “Weekend Boy” now, plus essential new tracks from Rachel Chinouriri, Royel Otis, Orla Gartland and Louis Dunford. Like all those artists, Antidote is always evolving—so keep checking back, and if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
