Sound like anyone you know?" - Backseat Mafia "The track features spirited drums, wistful guitars and vibrant bass [...] a rich synth-pop sound that is simply mesmerizing." - EARMILK "Blonde Diamond have been on a trajectory that is hard not to be dazzled by." - Le Future Wave "'4AM Eternal' drips with dreamy electro-pop, the band’s ethereal sound propped up by Alexis Young’s seductive vocals." - 3AM Revelations "It’s dreamy, dark pop at its best with fleshed out, forward-thinking electronica and hints of the 60s and 80s." - Neon Music "'4AM Eternal' rides emerging electronic swirls of color, gleaming with sensuous textures, and then flows into a vibrant electro-pop melody rife with dreamy, carnal hues, oozing on tumescent tendrils of ethereal mists. The arpeggiated bassline imbues the harmonics with surging depth, as the crisp tight percussion adds to the infectious rhythmic pulse." - Rawckus Blonde Diamond is back with a brand new single, "Strange Times," out today via all DSPS. On the track, the band said:  "'Strange Times' was (somewhat obviously from the title) written mid-pandemic, when the world felt like it was at a standstill. The entire idea originated from this feeling of living in a surreal dream, but we took the story away from the reality of what was happening in real life and transported it to an extravagant, fictional tryst that is taking place while the world is ending. It’s a nihilist fantasy of living life as a luxurious lie, because it’s all going to end anyways I suppose, so why not enjoy it while we can!" Last fall, Blonde Diamond shared a brand new single entitled “Red Flags," alongside an accompanying horror-inspired music video, which was directed by Brandon William Fletcher.

The Vancouver-based dream-pop band of Alexis Young (lead vocals/keys), Malcolm Holt (drums), Louis Hearn (guitar), and Bruce Ledingham (keys) have graced stages across Canada, Europe, Australia, the US, and India, sharing bills along the way with stalwarts such as Portugal. The Man, Broken Social Scene, Bishop Briggs, Chromeo, Mother Mother, Dear Rouge, and more. Their debut single, “Feel Alright” (2016), peaked at No. 6 on the Spotify Viral Charts within a week of its release. The rest of the Feel Alright EP is now quickly approaching one million streams. In 2017, Blonde Diamond won the coveted nation-wide JUNO Master Class mentorship program.  The band’s second EP, Fantasy Love, was premiered on CBC’s First Play Live in October 2018 featuring six freshly minted tracks—including the first single and video for “Better When You’re Close,” and second single, “Dark Place.” North American tour dates carried the band into 2019, and back into the studio.  As the world retreated into isolation, the band took the time off to hone in on their sonic identity in preparation for their full-length debut record, due out early 2022. Blonde Diamond’s newest offerings will hone in on their strongest assets: frontwoman Alexis Young’s vocal prowess, reinforced by the band’s ethereal instrumentals. Now, as Blonde Diamond walks the catwalk back into the spotlight, grab a front-row seat to catch all the new delights they’ve prepared.
