THE MAINE announce brand new album ‘You Are Ok’ for March 29th, and release new single ‘Numb Without You’
Over their twelve years together as a band, THE MAINE’s sound has been
Their last full-length self-released record, Lovely Little Lonely, that was released back in 2017, was laced with nuance and subtlety. Lovely Little Lonely premiered during its release in the Billboard Top 200 (#32) and charted in six countries on the iTunes charts (including holding a spot at #8 in the USA).
The band retired the record and bid farewell to fans in dramatic fashion, by hosting an official album funeral complete with a red casket, before stepping into the studio to work on record number seven.
Never ones to create the same sound twice, going into the studio last fall presented a new challenge for THE MAINE – albeit one they were eager to take. O’Callaghan says, “the most natural part that exists in our makeup is a shared reluctance to retrace our steps. YAO is the most ambitious we’ve ever been heading into a record and I truly believe we landed near the mark we set out to hit”. When asked about the meaning behind the album’s title, frontman John O’Callaghan mysteriously says, “well, are you?”
The first taste of the new album is available now in the form of single “Numb Without You” available digitally worldwide and in the visual form of a lyric video. Watch that – HERE
