Copeland Share New Song LAY HERE
By: Tori Hartshorn Jan. 18, 2019
Copeland have released "Lay Here" today. The new song is taken from the band's upcoming new album Blushing, which will be released on February 15, 2019 through Tooth & Nail Records. Listen to the song now at copleand.lnk.to/LayHere
In addition to "Lay Here", fans can stream "Pope", "Night Figures", and "On Your Worst Day", which are now available to listen to on all streaming platforms.
The tracks that make up Blushing show the band continuing to explore musical genres, pulling various stylistic influences like electronic and symphonic, and taking each sound and style to its logical extreme.
"We wanted to take all of the elements that made up our sound in the past and push those elements farther," Aaron Marsh says. "So, rock becomes more rock than we've been in the past. If we've taken elements of symphonic tones, let's now be very symphonic. When we're being electronic, be very electronic. We wanted to emphasize each element of sound harder, like an exaggerated version of Copeland's sound. We could be each thing individually by pushing each facet of our art in a more focused way."
The album is now available for pre-order at: copeland.lnk.to/Pre
