The Joy Formidable have shared a brand-new single, Into The Blue.<\/em> It is the band\u2019s first new material since their kaleidoscopic 2018 album \u2018AAARTH<\/a>\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Written in North Wales and later completed at their homes in Utah, Into The Blue<\/em> is self-assured and forthright, in a world still trying to regain its footing, stalked by the specters of manipulation, mis-information, and trepidation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For The Joy Formidable, Into The Blue<\/em> has come to symbolize a period in which anything felt possible. The world stands in a fine balancing act where no bad deed can shock anymore, yet good things can still happen. It is this second side of the coin that brings a resilient, more ethereal quality and magic to Into The Blue<\/em>, as the band embraces a growth mindset, leaning into the idea that uncertainty needn\u2019t be something to fear. As lead singer and guitarist Ritzy Bryan sings \u201cYou see me for what I am, I don\u2019t have to guess any more\u201d<\/em>, a great strength is found in turning feelings of being unaccepted and misunderstood into self-love and connection. We find them abandoning the idea of safety and security from the wider world, and instead searching for it within, happy to be surprised by life again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bryan comments: \u201cInto The Blue is about surrendering to love and magic. Having the courage to enjoy a new journey and the mystery and excitement of something unexpected. It\u2019s about opening your eyes to beauty and love again. Making it to the other side. Whilst not conceived as a metaphor for the times we all live in now, it certainly turned out that way.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
