Wednesday returns with a new album called Bleeds. The indie rock band from Asheville will release their follow-up to Rat Saw God on September 19 through Dead Oceans. They shared a new song titled Wound Up Here with a music video directed by Joriel Cura. Band leader Karly Hartzman said the track came from a friend's story about pulling a body from a creek. The person had drowned but stayed underwater for days because of the current.
Hartzman borrowed a line from poet Evan Gray's book for the song. She wrote the rest of the lyrics around that phrase after it stuck with her as pure genius. The album contains 12 tracks and features the previously released song Elderberry Wine. The five-piece band recorded at Drop of Sun studio with producer Alex Farrar who worked on their past albums.
Wednesday will tour North America after the album drops. Friendship will support them on the West Coast dates and Daffo will join the East Coast shows. Guitarist MJ Lenderman announced he will stay with the band for recording but stop touring with them. The group recently performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and made appearances on other television programs.
