Track: Thomas Cohen – Hazy Shades, plus UK tour dates


In some ways, its almost remarkable that former S.C.U.M frontman Thomas Cohen’s album Bloom Forever is being released at all. Its an album that chronicles the songs Cohen wrote between 2012 and 2015, including the period immediately after the unthinkable death of his wife Peaches at the age of just 25. Rather than abandon the record in his grief, he through himself into it, relocating to Iceland to finish it, and in turn finding some peace through the process.

From the album comes a new single Hazy Shades, both out on the same day – May 6th via Stolen Records. It’s a yearning, countryfied slice of indie pop, Cohen’s vocal – at once soft and wistful, then soaring and edgy, prods and cajoles your emotions as its saunters onward, graced with the sort of melody that wraps its way around your ears and into your consciousness.
