Brisbaine-based alt-rock group The Comfort just released the new single “Garden State,” the fourth and final single from their upcoming album Let the Love In, which is due out on Friday from BreakThrough Records. A big, anthemic single that still packs a lot of heart, “Garden State” tackles feelings of not fitting in.
“For most of my life, I’ve felt slightly outside the status quo and while that’s often a blessing, I still find myself wondering what it might be like to belong more easily,” says vocalist and bassist Dominic Harper. “At its core, Garden State is a letter to myself, or a kind of self pep talk to get out there, love people, love myself, and fully live life. Though the song carries a thread of melancholy, it ultimately reflects acceptance. I’ve learned to embrace who I am and to see the value in existing outside the norm. The world has so much to offer those of us who don’t quite fit, and it would be a shame not to lean into that and explore what it truly means to exist.”
The new album was recorded with ARIA-nominated producer and songwriter Callan Orr and arrives in the year that the band has toured with Chasing Ghosts along Australia’s East Coast and made an appearance at the inaugural Converge Festival in Brisbane and Melbourne. Let the Love In drops on Friday October 3.
