f54 presents Francis of Delirium

Francis of Delirium, AKA Luxembourg's breakout indie star Jana Bahrich, makes a triumphant return with new single “Little Black Dress”, out now via Dalliance Recordings. The new track is Francis of Delirium’s first new music since critically acclaimed debut album Lighthouse. T

“Little Black Dress” is a soaring slice of power pop that’s as catchy as it is cathartic. In singular Francis of Delirium style, guitars and drums crescendo with sugar-rush vocal melodies. A sting of Gen-Z melancholy reminds why Jana’s heart-on-sleeve, emotionally intelligent songwriting forms such a strong connection with her fans.

Speaking on “Little Black Dress” Jana says:
“'Coming home fresh off a tour opening for bôa, playing to all these kids excited about guitar
music, and heading into the Blondshell dates, I wanted to put out a song that captures the
energy and messiness of playing live and being on stage. It’s a song about the anticipation of
going out, the hope, the desperation, and the ultimate disappointment.”

It’s been a whirlwind 18 months for Francis of Delirium since their debut album Lighthouse was released in March 2024. Named as one The Guardian’s Readers Favourite Albums of 2024, proclaimed “Luxembourg’s first Indie Queen” by Uncut, whilst NME lauded the band for “putting Luxembourg on the map”.
Without stopping to catch a breath, Francis of Delirium undertook an extensive EU and UK tour, followed by 11 headline dates in the US and Canada, during which time she stopped in for an electric KEXP live session of single “Give It Back To Me” as well as winning over the team at NPR.

After a summer of festivals including a huge set at Primavera Sound, Francis of Delirium was back in the UK this June supporting bôa, the band having reformed following an incredible TikTok renaissance for their track “Duvet”. Soon after was a bucket-list support slot with no other than Alanis Morissette on home turf in Luxembourg, Francis of Delirium now play the final night a seven day run with US alt-rock icon Blondshell, having played to fans in Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and finishing tonight in Cologne.

In July 2025 the opening track from Lighthouse - "Ballet Dancers (Never Love Again)" - was featured in Lena Dunham's hit Netflix series Too Much
