EISLEY ANNOUNCES ‘I’M ONLY DREAMING’ FIFTH FULL-LENGTH OUT FEBRUARY 17; PREMIERES NEW SONG “YOU ARE MINE”

Tyler, TX-based indie pop outfit Eisley has announced I’m Only Dreaming, the band’s fifth full-length, which was produced by Will Yip (Circa Survive, Balance & Composure, Lauryn Hill) and will be released on February 17 via Equal Vision Records.

Today, the band is premiering a new song “You Are Mine” at Youtube.com/equalvision and eisley.merchnow.com, where album pre-orders have also launched. All pre-orders include instant downloads of “You Are Mine” and the recently released track “Defeatist”, which originally premiered on Billboard.com. The first pressing of I’m Only Dreaming on vinyl includes five variants: opaque oatmeal (tour and MerchNOW variant – limited to 1500), green/cream haze (MerchNOW variant – limited to 500), opaque light teal (tour VIP bundle variant – limited to 500), blue/green in white retail variant – limited to 1000), and red/black swirl (indie exclusive – limited to 300).

Vocalist/guitarist Sherri DuPree-Bemis opened up about “You Are Mine” revealing, “This song is about loving someone deeply and the beauty and challenges that come with being in a long term, committed relationship. You’re going to argue, you’re going to rub each other wrong and disagree and drive each other absolutely crazy sometimes but at the end of the day you just want to be together. (‘You’re my everything, my sun and moon, you make me swoon; Wake me up, talk too much, piss me off, but you are mine’).”

The band has also just announced a full US headline tour, which will kick off on February 16 in Houston, TX. Support bands will be announced at a later date. All upcoming shows can be found below. Pre-order tickets and VIP packages go on sale Monday, December 12th at 10AM EST.

Eisley’s upcoming tour lineup will include: Sherri DuPree-Bemis (vocals, guitars), Garron DuPree (bass), Remington DuPree (drums), Elle Puckett (lead guitars, vocals) and Jedidiah Lachmann (keys).

I’m Only Dreaming stays true to form of the band’s signature dreamy sound, with DuPree-Bemis elaborating, “Musically, you could say it’s classic Eisley, in the sense that it’s melodic, moody pop and is written from the heart. Lyrically, it’s very whimsical; it has a vibe that will take you into its own world and let you escape your normal life for a few minutes. I like to cloak things in a little mystery and romance; I think it’s part of what makes all of Eisley’s songs sound like they’re from the same world. Every record is like opening and reading a book in a series.”
