Get ready for a fresh wave of indie rock as Looms, the Brooklyn-based quintet, returns with new music this fall! Known as cult favorites within New York’s underground scene, Looms have garnered attention for their captivating sound that draws comparisons to iconic bands like Wilco and The War on Drugs. Their 2019 album, “The Way Up,” was praised for its unique blend of textures, with one review describing it as reminiscent of a jam session between Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks and Hank Williams.
Excitingly, Looms is set to release their new EP, “Big Dream,” via Paper Garden Records. The EP will follow their previous 2023 release, “The Dogs of Doubt,” and it promises to showcase their evolving sound. Leading up to this highly anticipated release, the band has shared the introspective lead single, “The Iron and the Rust,” which has been well-received by fans and critics alike.
Now, with just a few days to go until the official premiere, Looms is introducing the track “Happy Birthday.” This song delves into the bittersweet realities of lost friendships, providing a melancholic reflection on the unraveling of connections that were once strong. The emotional depth of the lyrics paired with their distinctive indie rock sound is something fans won’t want to miss.
You can catch the premiere of “Happy Birthday” on July 10th, just ahead of the EP’s release. Looms is eager to share this new chapter with listeners and is open to providing additional insights through interviews or Q&A sessions for those interested.
Mark your calendars because the “Big Dream” EP is officially set to launch on September 19, 2025. If you’re a fan of Wilco, The War on Drugs, or My Morning Jacket, this is a release you definitely won’t want to overlook.
