"Bauer’s latest single 'Miracles,' is an encapsulation of the themes of the record all at once, capturing dread, joy and everything in-between."
EARMILK

"'Miracles' begins with gentle strumming and his voice, only to expand with grand flourishes (including horns provided by the Westerlies) and heartfelt pain at the changes in life."
Beats Per Minute

"Contrasting with the looping, colorful psychedelia of last year’s 'One Pair of Blue Eyes' that had more in line with Animal Collective than The Walkmen, ['Skulls'] sounds well within the universe of his band, with the hazy keys of 'The Rat' pairing with animated percussion under Bauer’s vocals and distorted guitar riffing."
FLOOD

"The pounding 'Wild Light' kicks off the new record, building its increasingly relentless stomp across the track's four minutes, while Bauer finds himself more and more concerned with the world's chaos."
- All Music

"...ten new songs of rousing, dusty, sun-dappled rock."
- Brooklyn Vegan

"...a dusty, churning anthem, a song that sounds like it was lost to the years and then exhumed in ragged, sepia-toned grandeur."
- Stereogum

Today, Peter Matthew Bauer shares "Miracles," the latest single off his forthcoming LP, Flowers, due September 23 via Fortune Tellers Music. The track features a brass ensemble, The Westerlies, on the horn arrangement and it was produced and mixed by Bauer and Matt Barrick.

Speaking on his newest single, Peter wrote:

"'Miracles' is a big piece of this record and probably the most straightforward, folk style song I've ever written. It covers a lot of themes from the record all at once. It's both looking back at the strangeness of growing up, wandering an old railroad bridge with your friends and then jumping time to the present, wandering around downtown Los Angeles in the pandemic. For me, I guess it's expressing a lot of the fear and decay of the present time. I finished writing it in December 2021 on Christmas Day."
