UK & EU TOUR // AUG-SEP 2024
“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
“Bleachers is a bold, upbeat record – all unexpected sax lines, thwacking snares and lyrics that are somehow both wry and surprisingly earnest.” GQ MAGAZINE
“It’s not merely the sound of ‘Bleachers’ that distinguishes the album but Antonoff’s newly expansive approach to writing for the band.” LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Jack Antonoff has almost single-handedly made modern pop into a glorious safe space; an expansive, sensitive, creative biosphere.” ROLLING STONE

Bleachers, the band’s fourth studio album, is out now via Dirty Hit and features the singles Modern Girl, Alma Mater, Tiny Moves and Me Before You. The album was highly praised upon release with DIY lauding it as “nothing short of remarkable”; Rolling Stone commending its “spiritual ecstasy that can only be attained through the platonic perfection of the pop formula”; and NME labelling the record as “a triumphant portrait of Antonoff’s talent and the band’s tight musical bond”.

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 and 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-then-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, Lorde, The 1975, Diana Ross, St Vincent, Florence & The Machine and many more. In February Jack Antonoff won Producer of the Year (Non-Classical) at the 66th annual Grammy Awards for an incredible third consecutive year, becoming only the second producer in history to win three years running.
