Apr. 02 - Tulsa, OK - Cain’s Ballroom What people are saying about Weyes Blood’s And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow: “Ms. Mering has described this LP as the second in a trilogy—Titanic Rising was about the ecosystem and touched on climate change, Darkness is about the fragile state of the human psyche, and the next album will be about hope. We find all of those subjects on this record in varying degrees, and though it’s hard to know if she will follow through on this plan, it’s exciting to see an artist thinking about her work with such ambition. And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow easily matches its acclaimed predecessor in quality and scope, which is saying something.” Wall Street Journal
“Her voice alone is worth preserving humanity for…(9/10).” - Uncut
“Her reverence for the devotional reverberates in many of her songs, especially the ones on her new album And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow, whose sumptuous melodies often rise like a prayer.” ★★★★ ½ - Our Culture
“And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow again shows Mering’s most extraordinary craft.” ★★★★ - MOJO
“Her latest is rock ballads, a feminine twist on the tradition of Paul McCartney and Pink Floyd. Mering writes alone, which is unheard of these days, and sings spectacularly well. Murmuring one minute, soaring the next, she pulls you into her world.” ★★★★ - Mail on Sunday
“Gorgeous, sprawling soundscapes (8/10)” - Crack
“Mering has concocted a successor to Titanic Rising that any gambler worth their salt would have no doubt taken the under on. That Mering topped her own prior masterwork is its own reward and one we are no doubt not worthy of. Daring to think of what might come next should be set aside while letting this one fully sink in (9/10).” - No Ripcord
“Right from the first line of the first song, you remember how Natalie Mering is one of the best around for perfectly poising a line to make you stand up and take notice. On And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow, she lets you back into her world with her warm, lugubrious tones riding high in the mix, setting up a confessional, intimate feel to the entire album.” ★★★★ - The Skinny
“And In the Darkness, Hearts Aglow weaves a spell around listeners like a cocoon. It’s a triumph…(9/10).” - RIFF
“Mering pins her hopes on the idea that as naturally as things fall apart, they often fall into the right place, too. Maybe there’s a bit of magical thinking on her part – it would certainly fit the ethereal essence of all her music – but she might be onto something. Hopefully we won’t have to hold on much longer for the final part of the trilogy to see if she’s right (8/10).” - Northern Transmissions

Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering stars in a horrific love story in the official video for “Grapevine,” her epic new road ballad from And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow. Beauty meets the beast in this visual tale which features a car crash, a humanoid with glowing red eyes, and a haunted grapevine graveyard. Who is this ominous figure, and what does it want with Natalie? Watch and find out in the “Grapevine” video, directed by Actual Objects.
Upon its release earlier this month, “Grapevine” earned praise from the likes of Stereogum, who called it, ‘“A lush, swirling folk-rock song — a slow build that sounds pretty majestic even as it begins its climb.” Brooklyn Vegan adds that “Grapevine” is “a gorgeous song cut from the same ’70s-meets-now cloth that Weyes Blood does so well.” Beats Per Minute offers this, “While listening to Mering sing in her unbelievably rich and dulcet voice over simple acoustic strums and subtly gorgeous synth and string augmentations, you can imagine her speeding away in a convertible, her hair billowing in the wind, a look of determination on her face.”
Weyes Blood’s “In Holy Flux Tour,” a headlining international touring run for late winter and Spring of 2023 in support of And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow, begins on Saturday, January 28th in Berlin at Festsaal Kreuzberg and currently runs through Saturday, April 2nd in Tulsa at Cain’s Ballroom. Due to popular demand, Weyes Blood’s Tuesday, March 7th performance in Montreal has moved from the Corona Theatre to MTELUS. All previously purchased tickets will be honored at the new venue.

The album is her follow-up to the acclaimed Titanic Rising, the first album of three in a special trilogy. Where Titanic was an observation of doom to come, And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow is about being in the thick of it: a search for an escape hatch to liberate us from algorithms and ideological chaos (spoiler alert: the next one will be about “hope”).

Heartbreak and yearning color the new Weyes Blood single, “Grapevine,” an epic road song set along the famed stretch of Southern California’s Interstate 5.
Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering said of the single, “Technology is harvesting our attention away from each other. We all have a “Grapevine” entwined around our past with unresolved wounds and pain. Being in love doesn’t necessarily mean being together. Why else do so many love songs yearn for a connection?”
“Grapevine” is from And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow, her forthcoming new album, out this November worldwide from Sub Pop.

Later this week Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering will host the “Freaky Movie Weekend” at Roxy Cinema in New York’s Tribeca Neighborhood from Friday, October 14th through Sunday, October 16th, 2022. Mering says of the event, “I love movies.”
Weyes Blood’s And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow, her astonishing new album, will be available on CD/LP/CS/DSPs Friday, November 18th, 2022. and can be preordered now from Sub Pop.

Watch Weyes Blood get her big break (at the end of the world) in the deranged official music video for “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody,” the acclaimed new single and opening track from And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow, her forthcoming album.
The Anchors Aweigh-meets-The Omega Man-inspired, live-action/animated visual pairs Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering as “the new kid” alongside her co-star, a formerly celebrated and now disgruntled cell phone. Singing! Dancing! Technological Cannibalism! Even More Dancing! The “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody” video was directed by filmmaker Charlotte Ercoli (Weyes Blood’s “Seven Words”).
Released earlier this month, “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody” saw praise from the likes of New York Times, who say, “Natalie Mering’s soft, clarion voice sounds like a delayed transmission from 1970s AM radio, blending the searching tone of Court and Spark-era Joni Mitchell with the celestial calm of Karen Carpenter. She uses that instrument to stirring effect on ‘It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody’…” Pitchfork offers this, “Discovering the shared ache of seclusion, she yearns for pain and isolation to dissolve, settling on a poignant solution: mercy. As Mering repeats the title refrain, the song swells with orchestral strings and effervescent harp from Mary Lattimore (“Best New Track”).”
The astonishing new Weyes Blood full-length And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow will be available on Friday, November 18th, 2022. The album’s ten tracks were written by Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering, with album production from Mering along with Jonathan Rado on all songs except for “A Given Thing,” produced by Mering and Rodaidh McDonald. And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow was mixed by Kenny Gilmore at 101 Studio, and mastered by Emily Lazar and Chris Allgood at The Lodge, and features guest appearances from Meg Duffy, Daniel Lopatin, and Lattimore.

Where Titanic was an observation of doom to come, And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow is about being in the thick of it: a search for an escape hatch to liberate us from algorithms and ideological chaos (spoiler alert: the next one will be about “hope”). “We’re in a fully functional shit show,” Mering says. “My heart is a glow stick that’s been cracked, lighting up my chest in an explosion of earnestness.”
