Workalcoholic (producing multiple other artists, writing music for his band, touring) JACK ANTONOFF and his BLEACHERS have recorded a new longplayer. It’s called Everyone For Ten Minutes and it will land on May 22.
Press Info: “Bleachers return continuing the project’s evolution under the direction of acclaimed singer, songwriter, musician, and producer Jack Antonoff, an eleven-time Grammy Award winner.
Over the past decade, Bleachers have cultivated a passionate global fanbase, celebrated for high-energy live performances and a strong sense of connection with their audience.”
Ahead of the release we already got 3 splendid tasters.
– THE VAN –
The newest single.
Groover for dreamers.
Track: DIRTY TECH
New piece from her 3rd full-length in 6 years,
titled Play Me. It’ll drop on March 13th. More
info here.
“I was kind of musing about, is my next boss going to be an AI chatbot? We’re the first ones whose lights are going to go out — not the tech billionaires. It’s so abstract that people can’t comprehend.”
TUTV: Former Sonic Youth icon has found her niche as a solo artist. She experiments with synths, loops, overdubs, and other studio tricks, as she does also here again with this 2nd taster from the upcoming 3rd album, appropriately and sarcastically titled Dirty Tech.
Band: BLEACHERS Who: The moniker of American multi-instrumentalist/singer-songwriter Jack Antonoff, who worked under several other aliases and who composed
4 soundtracks, so far, too.
“An optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful.”
TUTV: Bleachers always make me think a bit of Beirut and vice versa.
Both create relaxing atmospherics with multi-layered tunes, inventively
constructed, like Jack Antonoff shows here once more with this new
glorious pop symphony.
One of the 23 tracks performed by big-name bands/artists on a new album,
named Help, with all benefits going to War Child. An organisation that shapes
systems that protect and support the well-being of children affected by conflict.

Band: THE ORIELLES Who: 3 thrilling indies
from West Yorkshire, UK.
Track: TEARS ARE
Newest single from album #5, named Only You Left.
It’ll come our way on March 13th. Order info here.
Esmé Hand-Halford (bassist/vocalist) about the song: “You could think of
something deeply human. But you could also answer it in a completely linguistic
sense and think of a tear as a symbol or an image.”
TUTV: Near-whispering vocals and musing thoughts about tears
surrounded by creaking guitars until the long acoustic outro.
