Beloved for their cinematic songwriting and atmospheric
blend of folk, rock, and psychedelia, Midlake returns with
their sixth studio album, A Bridge To Far -- a sweeping,
soul-stirring meditation on resilience and hope.
Lead singer Eric Pulido describes the record as a
reminder that, regardless of circumstance, there is a
place -- "not made of stone" -- where one can find
solace and strength. It's a call to persevere, to "go
bravely arm in arm and climb upon," inviting listeners to
transcend the darkness through connection and belief.
This is Midlake at their most inspired and intentional,
weaving together mythic storytelling and emotional
clarity with the signature textures that have made them a
touchstone in modern independent music.
Recorded in the band's hometown of Denton, TX at The
Echo Lab with acclaimed producer and mixer Sam Evian,
A Bridge To Far captures the warmth and wildness of the
band's earliest recordings while pushing into luminous
new territory. The first single, "The Ghouls," arrives as a
haunting and propulsive introduction to the record's
themes--equal parts spectral and cathartic
