CHARLY BLISS share new single ‘Waiting For You’

Today, Charly Bliss share ‘Waiting For You,’ the lively and dynamic new single from FOREVER, the band’s highly anticipated new album out August 16 on Lucky Number.

Eva Hendricks calls it “A love song for my bandmates. While I was separated from Sam, Spencer, & Dan during the pandemic, I remember watching videos of us playing shows and thinking “How could I have taken this for granted?” I couldn’t see how beautiful everything really was and how lucky we were. It was agonizing to be apart for that long but helpful, because I don’t think I’ll ever let myself forget that again.”

The song comes with a video directed by frequent collaborator Henry Kaplan, of which Hendricks says “the room is full of personal little Charly Bliss Easter eggs. Sam’s daughter’s first school photo, a t-shirt I made with my best friend Amanda at the mall when we were 8 years old, birthday cards, letters, and notes. It had to be personal to match how sentimental the lyrics are, and Henry and the whole team worked so hard to make that possible.”

FOREVER, produced by Jake Luppen (Hippo Campus) and Caleb Wright (Samia) along with the band’s Sam Hendricks, is full of the band’s biggest, brightest power pop yet, but it’s an evolution, not a departure. FOREVER crams a lifetime of feeling, decades of friendship, and years of craft into a batch of sonically tight but emotionally vast songs that activate the pleasure centres in your brain. The songs shimmer and burst, the way fireworks look like they should sound.

Charly Bliss is taking their energetic live show on the road in support of FOREVER on a headline tour on North America in the fall. They are also confirmed to appear at Pitchfork London 2024 this November, playing The Garage on Wednesday 6th November. Tickets are available now via the band’s website.

Charly Bliss is Eva Hendricks, Sam Hendricks, Spencer Fox and Dan Shure.
