Superbloom releases "Tiny Bodyguard"

originally published: 05/28/2023

Brooklyn, NY alternative rock band Superbloom has released "Tiny Bodyguard," the next single off its upcoming EP 'Life's A Blur,' which is scheduled to drop on June 8.

The band has been grabbing attention since the March release of "Head First", which received radio play from BBC Radio 1 Rock Show, Triple J, Sirius XMU, and widespread coverage including Uproxx, Stereogum, Consequence and more.

Building on that momentum, the band has announced a European headlining tour, which includes a stop at Europe’s largest club festival, Reeperbahn Festival, and support from Belgium’s up-and-coming Wrong Man. The four-piece will also play an album release show at Brooklyn Made in Brooklyn, NY on June 10, with guests Stay Inside and Woz. Tickets are available HERE.

'Life's A Blur' is a conscious progression from 2021's breakthrough debut full-length 'Pollen.' The songs have a harder edge and an undeniable, ever-present weight. Superbloom reach greater depths of sound through dynamic, varied songs and interludes that range from ethereal to manic, all while retaining those signature hooks, dreamy tones, and infectious bouncy rhythms that made their debut so irresistible.

'Life's A Blur' was produced by Superbloom, and recorded by Brian DiMeglio (Bartees Strange, Quinton Brock) at Brooklyn Recording Paradise with mixing/mastering by Zach Tuch (Touché Amore, Cafuné's 'Tek It', Silverstein). The album art is by Houston-based psychedelic collage artist, Patrick Turk.

It’s all about the music for Dave Hoon (vocals/guitars), Tim Choate (guitars), Brian DiMeglio (bass) and Matteo Dix (drums), who came together in 2018. This is much more than four friends jamming in a basement; having played in bands for their whole lives while pursuing full-time careers, they formed Superbloom out of a calling they couldn’t deny.

The European tour kicks off September 21 in Eindhoven, Netherlands and winds down on October 2nd in London, England.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...4/3/25

"So, Danny; how are you anyway? I'm doing the Beatle Fest in New Jersey before we do Sellersville; it's just me," laughed the always pleasant, always jovial and always upfront original Yardbird Jim McCarty. "What's happening now is, we're doing a different sort of show. Somebody had suggested to me a few years ago; why don't you do The Yardbirds history? So, we're doing a different show where I talk through the history of the group and we play the songs as they come up and we have a back projection illustrating what I'm talking about. We've never done this before, Sellersville will be the first one (Laughs)."
