The new album everyone for ten minutes is the inevitable culmination of a lifetime of devotion to bands for the six members and, ultimately, finds each one at their creative peak. Despite the moments where it briefly peers into the darkness, it’s essentially an optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful, leaping from harmony-laden folk rock to shimmering pop soul to the sax assisted New Jersey sound that Bleachers have become synonymous for.

Described by the New York Times as “anthemic” and “life-affirming”, Bleachers are fronted by thirteen time Grammy Award winning artist Jack Antonoff. After releasing their debut album Strange Desire in 2014, the band have built a huge, passionate following across four studio albums, renowned for their impressive live show and infectious camaraderie.

Bleachers’ self-titled fourth album, released in March 2024, marked a major high point and received widespread critical acclaim, with Rolling Stone praising the “spiritual ecstasy that can only be attained through the platonic perfection of the pop formula” and NME calling it “a triumphant portrait of Antonoff’s talent and the band’s tight musical bond”. Following its release, the band embarked on their sold out From The Studio To The Stage world tour which finished with their largest headline show to date at New York Madison Square Garden.
