Melbourne-based three-piece Blusher make their love of dance-pop, big synths and drum machines evident on their new single ‘Backbone’. It’s a punchy and powerful track, with a fierce energy inspired by the aftermath of a breakup. In creating the accompanying visualiser, the band explain that they thought “about what our video game characters would be. We saw ourselves channeling an element in each of our verses. Miranda’s verse is powered by fire and lit by red brake lights, Jade’s, a watery moment with a tear filled champagne glass, whilst Lauren’s air bending bridge propels you to the dance floor and breathes new life into you.” Their debut EP, Should We Go Dance?, drops on July 14th, 2023. -Dan Peeke
