Later. has today debuted their new single titled ‘Golden Bay’ from their upcoming album of the same name dropping January, 2025 via Cookie Records. To say that ‘Golden Bay’ is a beautiful track would be telling everyone that you heard and not listened. A suave mix of soul and atmosphere teetering the line between dreamy pop and memorable muse.
Made by true musicians and lovingly crafted by the artists that they are, Later. create a future classic that stays undefined by the time and unrefined like a diamond in the rough. The hook is a monster and the harmonies are inspiring. This is dance as a delicacy.
If you’re sitting down, this track will leave you shaking on your feet. Listen for yourself.
About Later. & ‘Golden Bay’
Laced with dreamy tinged melodies and captivating hooks, ‘Golden Bay’, emerges as a pulsating disco-pop anthem of liberation. The band say: “With its infectious chorus, the song beckons listeners to shed their inhibitions, dance with abandon, and embrace a moment of pure, unfiltered freedom.”
Some stories start in a rather unconventional way. When Charles, Paul, Noah and Theo met, they knew they had in common their passion for music. Reuniting every week in a studio in the bustling district of Pigalle, friendship and creation grew together punctuated by everlasting coffee-breaks and shares of dreams, ultimately forming the Later. band. The band is full of contradictions and has a thirst to stay out of the conventional schemes of the industry. English-speaking but French, their songs find inspiration in a variety of styles and eras (pop, soul, french-touch, rock…) in order to craft an intimate, spontaneous yet richly-produced music.
In 2019, their story draws attention of French label Kitsuné which releases their first single ‘L.Y.E’. Soon after, they engage with the label Cookie Records and sign two EPs and their debut album, played on multiple radios across Europe. The French news even compared them to Daft Punk in a special broadcast about the iconic duo. Only one year into the project. Their star track ‘Highway 10’ even gets played and shared from space by astronaut Thomas Pesquet on his last mission. Drawing the attention of major Netflix shows ‘Emily in Paris’, ‘Never Have I Ever’; their debut album ‘Walking on the Line’ (2023) uncovered a mature band that refused to restrain themselves to a particular genre but offer their own authentic vision. Celebrated across Europe, their ‘Walking on the Line’ tour reached a high point with a sold-out show at Paris’ iconic venue, La Cigale.
