Sydney electronic-pop trio Glades have announced the release of their long-awaited debut album, To Love You, out on November 2. The album features the new single Eyes Wide Shut and past singles Not About You, Do Right and Drive.
Glades recently released the official video for Eyes Wide Shut, a bittersweet dance track featuring the uplifting, crystalline vocals of frontwoman Karina Wykes. The moody black and white video, directed by Grey Ghost, was shot in LA and is the first official music video featuring the band.
Following their recent performances at Listen Out 2018 alongside A$AP Rocky, Skrillex, Snake Hips, Confidence Man and more, Glades will embark on a national headline tour, presented by triple j, next month. The band will kick off the tour in Melbourne on November 24, with stops in Perth, Adelaide, Sydney and Brisbane.
Of the forthcoming album, Glades say: “’To Love You’ explores the idea that there’s more to love than pure romance. Not only romantic love; it explores different forms of love, such as loving the people around you, loving those who can’t express that they need love, as well as loving yourself. It maps the progression of a relationship from the first spark, to its complications, and resolves with the realisation that everyone needs love in all its different forms.”
The release of To Love You and the band’s upcoming national headline tour consolidates the past two years’ of unprecedented success for Glades. With the inclusion of previous singles and seven brand new tracks, all produced in-house, the album showcases their unequivocal talent. Catch Glades perform their new material live on their national To Love You tour this November.

. . . My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences. Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”. Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook. Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.GLADES
