Back with their first taste of new music since 2019’s acclaimed Don’t Let Go album, one of Australia’s favourite modern rock acts – Dear Seattle – are back with a new single ‘In My Head’. After premiering via triple j‘s Good Nights yesterday, today’s official release comes alongside the announcement of a long-awaited Dear Seattle headline tour, before the band premiere the ‘In My Head’ music video this Friday, June 11 via Youtube at 4pm AEST.
Glowing yet melancholic in sound, Dear Seattle vocalist/guitarist Brae Fisher shares that ‘In My Head’ describes the familiar feeling of being stuck in your own head while trying to connect with others.
“It’s been a minute, but we’re so damn excited to be back with new music! ‘In My Head’ is about stepping back into your regular life after a period of withdrawn reflection, walking around like a spectator to your own life. There’s a thin barrier of disconnection as you try to adjust and settle back into everyday interactions, which is just enough to make you notice the true absurdity of monotonous small talk and forced conversations,” he says.
“It’s a more nuanced and mature direction for us but still keeps the classic Dear Seattle sound with an emotionally charged singalong chorus and introspective verses, so it felt like the perfect song for us to return with. We can’t wait to get back out there and play some this song and our other new tunes for you live.”
