"HIGH", the new aerial single from New Bleach
After introducing the groovy "Awake" and the mesmerizing "Silver Lining", New Bleach once again reveals another facet of its personality with its new single "HIGH".
Speaking on the track Raphaël Potvin explains, “The visceral need to escape is at the heart of the creation of the single "HIGH". This desire that sometimes translates into a road trip or the consumption of reality-transfiguring substances gave birth to this song that sounds like a collage of modern and vintage influences.”
To reinforce this transcendent state of mind, the band invites in a trip through the synthetic sounds of the present and the organic textures of 70s rock.
Over the aerial melodies of Yamaha's legendary PS-20, a rhythm that transports and uplifting electric guitar tones, New Bleach shapes an expressionist love story against a psychedelic road-movie backdrop.
New Bleach - ''HIGH''
New Bleach comprises of two members of the renowned francophone rock band Caravane, Dominic Pelletier and Raphaël Potvin. The pair have adopted a "home studio" approach to explore new sonic territory and create music that is contemporary yet intimate.
Their debut single 'Awake', released in April 2020, quickly garnered thousands of streams and was featured on Spotify's prestigious 'Indie All Stars' playlist alongside Tame Impala, Childish Gambino and Bon Iver. A few weeks later, the duo did it again with a second piece, "Silver Lining", which also made its way onto digital platforms thanks to an original mix of various influences.
More songs are expected at the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021 and to see how the band manages to refine its sound at each new release, let's bet that they will not go unnoticed.
