Endearments
Based in Brooklyn, Endearments are set to make their mark with the upcoming release of their debut album 'An Always Open Door' on March 6, 2026, via Trash Casual. Their emotionally dense and lush synth-backed indie rock, produced by Abe Seiferth of Nation of Language and Car Seat Headrest fame, draws on influences from 80s synthpop and late-90s emo. With a sound that navigates the realms of energetic indie rock whilst preserving raw lyrical storytelling, Endearments captivate listeners with their introspective and poignant musical craftsmanship.
