08.12.2023: Bleachers - 'Alma Mater' - new music video out now!
Bleachers today unveil the stunning video for ‘Alma Mater’ - the second single taken from their highly anticipated new album ‘Bleachers’.
"The new album is more conversational, outward-looking and even funny. It paints a more peaceful and, by Antonoff’s own admission, mature picture of love." - The Guardian!
The dreamlike visuals find frontman Antonoff driving through the city in the dead of night, encountering a cast of familiar faces.
Bleachers recently announced details of the US leg of their ‘From The Studio To The Stage’ tour. The newly announced tour dates will see the band take their renowned live show across the US in May and June 2024 with support from Samia, including a headline show at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado and the sixth edition of the band’s legendary Shadow Of The City festival in New Jersey, started in 2015.
As usual, $1 from every ticket sold will go to The Ally Coalition and their work supporting LGBTQ Youth across the country. Founded in 2013 by Jack and Rachel Antonoff, The Ally Coalition is committed to bettering the lives of LGBTQ youth through tours, campaigns and partnerships, providing support to organizations serving LGBTQ Youth.
There’s a rich depth to the band’s sound on ‘Bleachers’: it is laid out in bright, soulful technicolour. The album is frontman Antonoff’s distinctly New Jersey take on the bizarre sensory contradictions of modern life, on his position in culture, and on the things he cares about. Sonically, it’s sad, it’s joyful, it’s music for driving on the highway to, for crying to and for dancing to at weddings. There’s something reassuringly touchable and concrete about its sentiment: exist in crazy times but remember what counts.
Described as “anthemic, life affirming pop rock” by the New York Times, Bleachers are fronted by globally celebrated, eight-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, musician, and producer, Jack Antonoff. Releasing their debut album ‘Strange Desire’ in 2014, the band have built a huge, passionate following across three studio albums, becoming renowned for their impressive live show and infectious camaraderie. The band’s last album, ‘Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night’ took them to new heights, showcasing Antonoff’s immersive songwriting and, as Variety testified, his innate skill at “supersizing personal stories into larger-than-life pop anthems”.
Both with Bleachers and as a songwriter and producer, Antonoff, who, in 2021, was credited by the BBC for having “redefined pop music”, has collaborated with the likes of Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, The 1975, Diana Ross, Lorde, St. Vincent, Florence + The Machine, Kevin Abstract and many more.

Bleachers "Alfie's Song (Not So Typical Love Song)" out now!
Vier Jahre ist es nun her, dass der Fun.- Gitarrist Jack Antonoff sein Retro-Pop-Projekt Bleachers ins Leben rief. Die Band aus New York City veröffentlicht diese Woche das Musikvideo zu ihrer Single "Alfies's Song (Not So Typical Love Song)" vom "Love, Simon" Soundtrack. Das Video handelt von einer missglückten Love Story. Antonoff schafft es aufgrund vieler Umstände nicht, sein Date bei der "Love, Simon" - Premiere zu küssen. Ein Zusammenstoss mit dem Kellner, Nasenbluten und ein Autounfall verhindern das Happy End, was dann schlussendlich natürlich doch noch eintritt. Anfang des Monats performten die Künstler den Song in der "The Tonight Show" und steuerte neben "Alfie's Song" noch drei weitere Tracks "Rollercoaster", "Keeping A Secret" und "Wild Heart" zum neuen Hollywood Film bei.
