The new shows will follow Bleachers’ previously announced North American tour, which concludes in October.
The band have already shared two singles from ‘Everyone For 10 Minutes’ in the form of ‘You And Forever’ and ‘Dirty Wedding Dress’. A press release described the collection as an “optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful”.
Their previous, self-titled full-length record arrived in 2024, ahead of a “reimagined” 10th anniversary version of their debut album ‘Strange Desire’.
NME gave the former a four-star review, saying that Bleachers’ latest album contained “some of their best material yet”.
Antonoff spoke to NME around the time of its release, recalling how he had found a new version of self-respect throughout his time in the industry.
“[It’s] to do what I love. You know, I live my life in the studio and on tour – that’s how I communicate and feel myself,” he explained. “[But] everyone has a different version of it. I think maintaining it as you define it – and not as it’s defined in a moment and culture – is pretty vital to maintain dignity and our own human experience. Especially as more and more of our lives become like other people’s reflections.
“It’s really important to reject that, especially as an artist or someone in the public eye [where] there’s so much pressure to toe any kind of party line thinking. And the truth is, I have thoughts that aren’t really quantified by any person or community; they’re just my own. And so I don’t want to be, I guess, as readable or predictable as I’d be celebrated [for] if I were to be.”
