Today’s announcement is heralded by her latest single, “Peach Sky.” Following the success of last year’s introspective single “You Said I’d Feel It All Again,” this track marks another chapter in Theo Bleak’s exploration of raw emotion and dreamlike soundscapes. “Peach Sky” captures the fleeting beauty of a single moment, blending wistful lyricism with the artist’s signature “goth waltz” guitar melodies and lush, layered vocals. Theo Bleak delves into themes of change, longing, and the search for meaning. “I wrote the song from fragmented thoughts and observations I had kept record of, I wrote Peach Sky with Mark (Johnston) and Dan (Gatreau), while reflecting on the second time I lived and worked on the Isle of Skye,” Theo Bleak explains. “The morning I left the island to return home, the sky was a beautiful peach colour. I reflected on how impermanent my feelings were.”  LISTEN TO “PEACH SKY” Today’s single, produced alongside long-time collaborators Mark Johnston and Dan Gatreau, highlights Bleak’s ability to pair emotional depth with experimental production. Drawing on influences from artists such as Radiohead, Mazzy Star, and Pinegrove, “Peach Sky” combines atmospheric guitar tones, dramatic percussion, and cinematic textures to create a sound that feels simultaneously intimate and expansive. Bleak’s previous release, December’s “You Said I’d Feel It All Again” garnered widespread support. The single was played on BBC Radio 1’s Future Artists, BBC Radio 2’s Unwinds and was also recognized by multiple editorial playlists such as New Music Friday in the USA, UK, Belgium, Sweden & Netherlands as well as Fresh Folk, All New Pop, and Next Gen Singer-Songwriters. Earlier this month, rising star Rachel Chinouriri played the track on her takeover of BBC Introducing on Radio 1. “Peach Sky” hopes to have the same impact, adding to the young artist's impressive repertoire.  PURCHASE THEO BLEAK VINYL Fans of Theo Bleak’s work will recognize her trademark blend of vulnerable storytelling and evocative sound design, and Peach Sky hints at a new, matured creative direction. The single continues to build anticipation for her forthcoming EP.
