about

This song was written about Aderyn's infatuation with the boy who worked at the local chip shop during Covid lockdown. The chippy was the only place open at the time, and Aderyn's imagination ran wild with visions of their blissful future together. Chip Shop Boy is an irreverent and irresistibly fun indie pop song with moments of Pavement inspired guitars, and more hooks than a fisherman. Aderyn also played all the drums on the track, which was recorded in West Wales with producer Gethin Pearson (Orla Gartland, Charli XCX, Adwaith). Aderyn is touring the UK this month from 26th July starting at Le Pub, Newport, and will play Gwen Gwen Festival this summer. Chip Shop Boy is the second single from Aderyn's debut EP Sea Glass, out 15 September

lyrics

I’ve never felt this way before, I think he likes me
Two racing hearts down by the shore
And the rings on his hands creeping underneath my t-shirt, he’s an angel on earth

And he works in the chip shop, yeah
And he smiles at me while he plays with my hair

Chip shop boy, I wanna be your girl
You make me feel like we live in a perfect world
Where theres happy endings all the time and people like me and you turn out alright
Chip Shop Boy

I’ve never felt like this before, the way he holds me
Fall off the sofa to the floor, anime making shapes in the shadows of the TV
This is heaven to me

And he works in the chip shop yeah

Chip Shop Boy
I wanna be your girl
You make me feel live in a perfect world
Where theres happy endings all the time and people like me and you turn out alright
Chip Shop Boy

He works in the chip shop yeah
He works in the chip shop yeah
If I could be anywhere right now I would be here

Chip Shop Boy
I wanna be your girl
You make me feel live in a perfect world
Where theres happy endings all the time and people like me and you turn out alright
Chip Shop Boy

Ask me to be your girl and no pretending
You make me feel like I live in a world where theres happy endings
My sister thinks I’ve got trust issues, but I don’t feel broken when I’m with you
I wanna be your girl
Chip Shop Boy

Aderyn London, UK

As a teenager Aderyn grew tired of life on a sheep farm in the Brecon Beacons and left home at 16 to become a drummer in a grunge band.

Drawing on her love of grunge rock and indie pop she wrote songs about past loves, new loves and future loves; basically, all about loves, this is pop music after all… ... more
