After a whirlwind initial phase of writing, recording, and touring at a frenetic pace, Plum marks a period of relative patience for Wand, a refocusing and a push toward a new democratization of both process and musical surface. Process, surface, democratization - sheesh! Listen, above all it's some deeply moving and exploratory-as-fuck rock music, and there’s no better example of these sonic attributes than freshly dropped new single, “Blue Cloud". For some insightful journalism, we refer to a quote from esteemed British rag, Uncut, who claim, “’Blue Cloud’ is a perfect summation of what Wand do best, offering a variety of moods that manage to sound both instinctive and considered. This is psychedelia in the truest sense of the meaning - coltish, dark invigorating, and endlessly curious." And that's just so you have an objective other take, OK? The rest is up to you - Wand's Plum hits the streets September 22nd, but you can preorder here. And if you're on the live tip, dig the massive tour dates below.
