Ahead of their highly anticipated 20th anniversary show this month, The Bloomfields have dropped 'Get Up', a new single that the band originally wrote in 2019.

Built around a single-chord jam, 'Get Up' draws inspiration from the whimsical era of ‘60s psychedelic rock. The energetic track brims with a heavy dose of loud, droning guitars and hypnotic soundscapes, providing a stark contrast to their more pop-leaning work.

According to the band, they wrote the song without the intention of making a hit. “It felt wonderful to release it as our fourth single and share it with our audience. It’s a high-energy track that felt perfect to release ahead of our 20th-anniversary show, getting people hyped and ready.”

Band members Rocky Collado and Lakan Hila penned 'Get Up', with the latter taking care of the mixing duties. Giving the track a retro feel with modern energy, Lakan made sure that his approach to production reflected The Bloomfields’ 1960s and 1970s aesthetic while embracing a hard-hitting, jam-driven sound.
