Earlier this year,\u00a0Dream State<\/strong> made their return with a new line-up. Having released a couple of singles in between numerous festival and support slots, the quartet have now shared details of a new EP<\/p>\n

‘Still Dreaming’ will be released on 26th January 2024, and will consist of seven tracks including the title track which can be heard below.<\/p>\n

On the making of the EP, the band commented;\u00a0“We feel this is our best work to date, and we\u2019re so excited for everyone to hear it! It felt like it came together naturally, with everyone collaborating in some way. We worked closely together to see if what we can bring to the table instrumentally\/vocally can enhance the structure of the songs, using our own individual skillsets.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The release will be the first EP with Jessie Powell on vocals. “This EP has been another way for Jessie to express her pent up emotions and release some of the negativity in her brain in a non-destructive way, to showcase how even when you\u2019re at your lowest, or darkest point in life, there\u2019s always light at the end of the tunnel, and you can get through it,”\u00a0<\/em>Dream State\u00a0<\/strong>explained.<\/p>\n

The announcement of\u00a0‘Still Dreaming’\u00a0<\/em>comes a year on from announcing the addition of Powell, bassist Jake Bowen, and drummer Tom Connolly. Reflecting on how close\u00a0Dream State<\/strong> came to ending, the band said, “It\u2019s quite emotional listening back to the record because there was a period where the band was so close to stopping altogether. We think this whole EP stands for not giving up and our perseverance. We hope everyone enjoys it as much as we enjoyed making it!”<\/em><\/p>\n
