Power pop band Charly Bliss have announced their new album, FOREVER, arriving August 16th via Lucky Number Music. It’s the New York-based act’s first full-length album since 2019’s Young Enough.
The announcement was accompanied by the release of a dynamic, nostalgic lead single, titled “Nineteen.” Speaking about the single, lead vocalist Eva Hendricks says, “I’ll always be fascinated by love and relationships that don’t quite work and bring tsunamis of heartbreak. The further away I am from it, the kind of love that bashes you against the rocks just as often as it carries you over waves of manic joy, the easier it is to see the full scope of it.”
While the song starts out with driving piano chords, it steadily builds into a sweeping ode to the past and the lingering effects of a first love. Heading into the music-making process for this album, the band explains that fun was their biggest focus, working to shed the heavier energy of the last few years.
“Fun is our natural state,” guitarist Spencer Fox emphasized in a statement. “No one has more fun than us and no one loves each other more than us.”
While this is the band’s first full-length project in a few years, 2023 was dotted with individual releases, including the playful “I Need a New Boyfriend” and upbeat “You Don’t Even Know Me Anymore.” Watch the new music video for “Nineteen” below.
