WEDNESDAY

In the organizer's words:

The indie rock band Wednesday from Asheville, North Carolina, will be coming to Hamburg, Berlin and Munich in February 2026. Their new highly anticipated album "Bleeds" will be released on September 19 on Dead Oceans / Secretly. Just like their highly acclaimed previous album "Rat Saw God" (#1 Album of the Year 2023 by American opinion maker Stereogum, #4 by Pitchfork), "Bleeds" was recorded in their hometown of Asheville and produced by Alex Farrar, who has been recording the band for many years. Vocalist/bandleader Karly Hartzman once again brought demos into the studio, where she and her bandmates - Xandy Chelmis (lap steel, pedal steel), Alan Miller (drums), Ethan Baechtold (bass, piano) and MJ Lenderman (guitar) - teamed up to infuse the compositions with just the right amount of country truths, indie-pop hooks and sludge noise. "Bleeds" is a patchwork-like triumph of literary allusions and outlaw grit, of place-based poetry and hair-raising noise. "Bleeds is the spiritual successor to Rat Saw God and, in my opinion, the quintessential 'Wednesday Creek Rock' album," says Hartzman, pleased with the way her band has refined and refined their trademark sound, making them one of the most interesting rock bands of their generation. "This is what Wednesday songs should sound like," she explains. "We've spent a lot of our lives trying to figure that out - and I feel like we've done it here."
