Give it - blindr

blindr are Bill Caldwell, Blake Woodfield, Charlie McCracken and Jack Power. Based in Auckland, New Zealand, blindr pushes the sonic boundaries of the modern pop-punk scene with their high-energy and melody-driven sound.   blindr’s relentless drive and dynamic stage show have made them a mainstay of the live circuit, with performances that are raw, infectious and charismatic. With a string of releases lined up for the back end of 2024, blindr have taken their unique brand of pop-punk from the stage to the studio with the aim of connecting audiences across the globe. The track Give It was produced, mixed and mastered, by Zorran Mendonsa, predominantly known for his work with Kiwi rock and metal acts such as Devilskin, Alien Weaponry, Crooked Royals and Shepherds Reign. “We’re pushing the boat out into heavier waters, a whole new sound from what you’ve come to expect from blindr” shares singer and guitarist Bill Caldwell. “This new single is darker and has more grit than any other sound we have explored before.  We’ve called on many different influences in pulling it together.” “Along with many other songs in the works, ‘Give It’ was written in our home studio. Conveniently, the band fell into a shared living situation two years ago and we’ve been writing ever since. This single was one of the first songs written together, in our flat… and it just stuck. We’ve taken the song to cities across New Zealand, it’s seen some great moments and it is a high point of our live show - these moments are what we live for. The production of this song opened our minds to the fact - there are no rules. Since it was written, we’ve become more experimental, more well-rounded, and maybe a little tougher too. We’re excited to see the effects of this ‘change of pace’ tune, ‘Give It’”’ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/blindr_nz/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/blindrnz TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@blindr_nz
