The Belair Lip Bombs Announce New Album ‘Again’ with Shimmering Single ‘Hey You’

The Belair Lip Bombs return with a fresh album ‘Again’ on Third Man Records, unveiling their dreamy lead single ‘Hey You’.

A New Chapter Begins with ‘Hey You’

If you’ve been following The Belair Lip Bombs, you know they’ve been quietly carving out their own space in the indie scene with a style that’s both youthful and introspective—a vibe they’ve dubbed “yearn-core.” Their announcement of a brand-new album, Again, has fans buzzing, especially with the release of the glittering lead single, ‘Hey You’. This track is a shimmering blend of gauzy riffs and wistful lyrics that pull you right into their emotive world.

The Belair Lip Bombs, caught mid-groove, radiating their unique indie charm.

If you’ve felt those bittersweet pangs of love and longing, you’ll find yourself nodding along as vocalist Maisie Everett croons:

“Told you I love you, but it isn’t fair
If I have to I tell you when I need you there
Breaking the silence, I’m holding my own
Reading the message when nobody’s home,”

Maisie’s voice carries that delicate balance of vulnerability and strength that’s become a hallmark of the band’s sound.

Synth Loops and Expanding Horizons

What’s especially exciting about ‘Hey You’ is the fresh musical territory The Belair Lip Bombs explore here. Maisie shared that having a synth loop drive an entire song was new for them. It’s a bold move that broadens their sonic canvas beautifully, blending their indie rock roots with a subtle electronic pulse.

Bandmate Daniel ‘Dev’ Devlin elaborated on this evolution, noting:

“We kind of leaned into that and pushed to make the scope of the song bigger than some of the other songs in the album.”

That sense of exploration has always been part of their charm, and it’s thrilling to hear them stretch their wings. The track’s shimmering synths, layered with catchy guitar riffs and steady rhythms, make for an irresistible listen.

From Lush Life to Again: The Band’s Journey

This isn’t their first rodeo. Last year, The Belair Lip Bombs made waves as the first Australian band to sign with Jack White’s iconic Third Man Records, who then reissued their debut album Lush Life. That record was a captivating blend of energy and experimentation, earning rave reviews.

One critic praised the album’s eclecticism and cohesion:

“In fact, there’s an eclectic quality to debut album ‘Lush Life’ that might sound unfocused in another band, but Everett and company are so honed and controlled on each track that we’re brought right along for every swerve and sidestep. It helps that the songs are short and naggingly catchy, and that bassist Jimmy Droughton and drummer Liam De Bruin provide such unwavering momentum for Mike Bradvica’s versatile lead guitar and Everett’s equally varied vocal turns.”

That raw yet polished vibe helped Lush Life stand out, and with Again, it feels like the band is ready to build on that foundation, offering something both familiar and refreshing.

The Anticipation Builds

With Again arriving just before Halloween, the timing feels perfect for an album that’s both reflective and shimmering with youthful yearning. ‘Hey You’ already sets the tone—intimate yet expansive, catchy yet complex.

If you’ve been searching for music that feels like a late-night confession or a hazy summer memory, The Belair Lip Bombs might just have your new favorite album waiting.
