Over the past couple of years, New York-based grungegaze outfit Glimmer — Jeff Moore (vocals, guitar), Jaye Moore (drums), Johnny Nicholls (guitar) and Kevin Dobbins (bass) — have released a handful of well-received singles have seen the quartet firmly establishing a sound that mixes elements of shoegaze, grunge and dream pop in a way that’s both nostalgia inducing and yet contemporary.
Building upon a growing profile, the band’s highly-anticipated full-length debut, Get Weak is slated for an October 3, 2025 vinyl release through Philadelphia-based label, Abandon Everything. Recorded with Jeff Berner at Brooklyn-based Studio G and mastered by Will Yip, Get Weak reportedly sees the band pairing their more pop-leaning singles with heavy-hitting alt-rock anthems and softer, more ethereal material.
The album’s latest single “Dissolve” continues a remarkable run of material anchored around rousingly anthemic, The Colour and The Shape-era Foo Fighters-like hooks, reverb-soaked guitars and a dreamy coda. At its core, the song evokes a dreamy and aching nostalgia for past summers — for times and things that are gone and can’t be had again.
After returning from a European tour, the members of Glimmer will be embarking on a short run of Stateside tour dates. You can check out the tour dates below.
