Blushing's unique brand of dreampop-infused indie rock hearkens back to the halcyon days of college radio.

With a diverse array of influences including Elastica, Curve, Veruca Salt, Lush, The Breeders, and Smashing Pumpkins, Blushing manages a deftly executed eclecticism that recalls the best elements of alt rock's past while retaining a vitality and immediacy that tethers them firmly to the present.

On their recently completed third LP, Sugarcoat, Blushing's dynamism is on full display, flitting effortlessly from spacey psychedelia to twee pop jangle with finesse and panache.

Sugarcoat is a dense, reverb-laden exploration of alt rock's 40+ year history that conjures up concord from chaos.

This album is where the band get to explore their love for expanding genres, from Post-punk (Seafoam), Psych-gaze (Slyce), Grunge pop (Silver Teeth), Indie Pop (Tamagotchi), Slowcore (Sugarcoat) and beyond.

A huge highlight when making the album was the ability to collaborate with Jeff Schroeder on the track "Seafoam".

The band had the opportunity to meet with him a few times over the years and asked him to see if he would be interested in lending lead guitar on the track as they were nearing the end of recording.

He agreed right away and wrote a perfect accompanying lead while out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins.

The contribution elevated the song and the band are so grateful to have his influence captured on the album.
