Background
editAustralian garage rock band, British India, released their fifth studio album, Nothing Touches Me in March 2015 via Liberation Music.[1] The line-up was Will Drummond on bass guitar, Declan Melia on lead vocals and guitar, Matt O'Gorman on drums, and Nic Wilson on lead guitar.[1][2] Although the band attempted to record it in Berlin in late 2014, the results were lacklustre. They returned to Sing Sing studios in Melbourne where it was produced by Glenn Goldsmith, again.[1] Nothing Touches Me debuted at number five on the Australian albums chart, their fourth album in a row to reach the top ten.[3][4] It provided two singles, "Wrong Direction" (October 2014) and "Suddenly" (2015).[1] The band toured in support of the album and headlined the main stage at the 2015 Byron Bay Bluesfest as a replacement for The Black Keys.
