Bleachers today release ‘Live At Bowery Ballroom – Amazon Music Songline’.

Recorded at a special intimate show in New York City in March on the eve of the release of their acclaimed self-titled fourth album, the exclusive Amazon Musicrelease features a live album alongside a live concert film featuring exclusive interviews with frontman Jack Antonoff at Electric Lady Studios.

You can listen to ‘Live At Bowery Ballroom – Amazon Music Songline’ HERE while you can watch the accompanying trailer HERE and full concert film HERE.

The band’s latest release is part of ‘Songline’; a new series from Amazon Music dedicated to the craft of songwriting that pairs intimate performances from landmark artists with in-depth interviews about their songwriting process.

Bleachers also recently unveiled ‘A Stranger Desired’, a reimagined version of their iconic debut album released in celebration of its tenth anniversary. You can listen to ‘A Stranger Desired’ HERE.

Having taken in 50+ sold out shows across North America, United Kingdom, Europe and Asia throughout 2024, Bleachers will bring their ‘From The Studio To The Stage’ tour to a close next week with their largest headline show to date at the legendary Madison Square Garden.

‘Bleachers’, the band’s fourth studio album, was released in March via Dirty Hit and features singles ‘Modern Girl’, ‘Alma Mater’, ‘Tiny Moves’ and ‘Me Before You’. The release was met with tremendous praise with DIY lauding the album as “nothing short of remarkable”, Rolling Stone praising its “spiritual ecstasy that can only be attained through the platonic perfection of 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, eleven-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 four studio albums, becoming renowned for their impressive live show and infectious camaraderie. The band’s third 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, Sabrina Carpenter, The 1975, Kendrick Lamar, Diana Ross, Lorde, St. Vincent, Florence + The Machine, Kevin Abstract and many more. In February 2024 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. In May, he was recognised as one of the most influential people of 2024 on the prestigious annual TIME100 list.
