Buckley Ward will be launching their new album So Pretend around Australia this May. Foreshadowed by the latest single Into the Darkening Blue and title track So Pretend, the album is due for release on April 20th.
Since the release of the album’s title track and first single in late 2011, the momentum has been steadily building behind the band and has seen them hand selected to open for such names as Jungle Giants, San Cisco and Big Scary, the latter taking them on a national tour.
So Pretend is an album that has pop at its heart, and something less definable in its veins. On the surface, the shimmering melodies and pitch-perfect harmonies dominate, but listen closer and the album’s darker undercurrents snap sharply into focus.
