blanket announce new EP ‘Blue Eyes’

BLANKET have announced a new EP!

Titled Blue Eyes, the upcoming EP from the Blackpool-based post-rock band is the follow-up to 2021’s Modern Escapism, which is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Church Road Records.

Speaking about the upcoming EP, the band says, “this EP is kind of a transition record for us as we head towards a hopefully a new record some time in the next year. There has been an evolution of our sound and approach to songwriting, and a new lineup, with our new drummer Lucas Fletcher, and we see Blue Eyes as an introduction to the composite of our diverse influences, and representative of BLANKET in 2023. We’re also including some never before released songs including our own interpretation of some of the music we’ve been influenced by including a RADIOHEAD cover we worked on with our friends in PALM READER, a cover of John Murphy’s In The House, In A Heartbeat from 28 Days Later, and an acoustic version of POST MALONE’s I Fall Apart.”

Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; the title track Blue Eyes.
