Meet Blusher, the Melbourne-based 3-piece who self-described their existence as ‘angry sparkly pop chaos’. Today they reveal their latest single Dead End, alongside official music video, out now via Atlantic Records/Warner Music Australia. Opening with a driving, gritty bass line made for a 3am dance floor, Dead End pulls you in close with intimate vocals, before exploding into neon ‘head out the car window’ synths. The single follows on from a massive 2022 for the band with a debut performance and release that lead to a signing from Atlantic Records/Warner Music Australia. Catch Dead End live in March as Blusher hit the road, supporting Norwegian artist Aurora on the Australian and New Zealand legs of her The God We Can Touch Tour.
Born from a place of nostalgia, Dead End came together after a conversation Blusher had recalling each of their first nights out in a bid to escape suburban boredom. “Miranda told the story of using a fake ID to get into sticky-floored dive bars (and crying the night she got caught). We pictured a run-down club called the Dead End, where you find yourself on a Tuesday night having a terrible and fantastic time.”, they explain.
