Pale Blue Eyes have shared their new single “Spaces” from their upcoming album This House, out September 1st.

Delirious chatter… clinks of warm cans of beer… Cocteau Twins played at full blast. Lively memories of parties and people live on through This House, the new album from Pale Blue Eyes. The house in question is there on the front cover, the childhood home of the trio’s vocalist and guitarist, Matt Board. Defined by closure and moving on, This House is shaken to its rafters as the band navigate the grief of recent parental loss. Alongside uplifting melodies that dance like no-one’s watching, the album is rich in life-affirming human connections, where music-making becomes a means of recovery.

New track “Spaces” is about the “constant bittersweet nature of life, and about embracing and accepting change” shares singer + guitarist Matthew Board. “Change is good, healthy and things move on and evolve.”

“People always want control, elaborates Lucy Board, drummer. “Life will always throw stuff at you that you can’t control, so it’s pointless even trying.”

The video, directed by long-time collaborator Dylan Friese-Green and band member Aubrey Simpson, takes the viewer on a hyperactive trip through the band’s new home of Sheffield, including cameos from Bramall Lane (Sheffield United’s ground), Spinning Discs record shop and Finale Guitar Shop.
