Bay Area staple alt rock group FINISH TICKET share a third listen to new music from their upcoming sophomore album ECHO AFTERNOON–due September 6 via Better Noise Music—with the dreamy and melodic track “Peace of Mind.” The song, out digitally Friday, August 9, was written about the never-ending quest to find ‘peace of mind’ as its lyrics relay: ‘Another life, another day; You’ll find peace of mind.’
FINISH TICKET have today (August 8) shared a video visualizer for the track which can be seen streaming below or directly via YouTube HERE. Pre-save “Peace of Mind” HERE.
“‘Peace Of Mind’ is a song about all aspects of life feeling overwhelming at once,” says vocalist Brendan Hoye. “The feeling of being split between optimism and pessimism. Maybe one day after all is done, you’ll have peace of mind vs. the thought that maybe life is just always this way.”
FINISH TICKET—Brendan Hoye (vocals), Alex DiDonato (guitar), Gabe Stein (drums), and Ryan Blair(bass)—co-produced ECHO AFTERNOON alongside Jim Kaufman (Danny Worsnop, Helmet, Atlas Genius) and Michael Coleman (Chappel Roan, Sure Sure, Em Beihold). The album’s 12 tracks take listeners on an emotional roller coaster while showing the band at their most vulnerable as they narrate the struggles and anxiety of being stuck in limbo while trying to find an escape to a brighter future. Pre-order ECHO AFTERNOON on cd, vinyl and/or digital LP now at https://finishticket.ffm.to/echoafternoon.
After creating a wave with sold-out shows across the Bay Area and their debut album Tears You Apart, they were picked up by Atlantic Records who released their EP When Night Becomes Day. They made their debut late-night TV performance on “Late Night With Conan O’Brien.” In 2019, FINISH TICKET self-released their hit track “Dream Song,” which garnered over 4.1 million streams and saw the band embark on a successful headlining tour, selling out multiple venues across the country. Then COVID hit in 2020 and put everything to a halt.
After spending the past three years writing and recording their second full-length album, Echo Afternoon, FINISH TICKET signed a record deal with Better Noise Music. This was supported by a U.S. run with The Beaches followed by a summer long tour which included a performance at Lollapalooza (alongside headlining acts Billie Eilish and Karol G) and Arizona’s Innings Fest. Stay tuned for news on upcoming dates in the coming weeks.
