Another Michael Premiere New Single "Hub of Dreams"

Summer West Coast Tour w/ The Polyphonic Spree

Philadelphia's most adventurous guitar pop band, Another Michael, are gearing up for the release of their new album Pick Me Up, Turn Me Upside Down, and today they're back with one more early single, "Hub of Dreams," premiering today via Consequence. Due out May 31st from Run For Cover Records, Pick Me Up, Turn Me Upside Down arrives hot on the heels of its sibling, 2023's Wishes To Fulfill, providing a more experimental counterpart and highlighting Another Michael's unending creativity. 

"Hub of Dreams" follows "I'm Your Roommate," "Seafood," "Mudslide," "Is There A World?," and the title track (which have drawn attention from the like of Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, Uproxx, Paste Magazine, and more) and is yet another offering from the band's seemingly infinite well of inventive indie pop. Another Michael discussed the song's influences via Consequence who praised the track, calling it "a great example of the past and future of Another Michael merging in real time. The chorus is anthemic and urgent, but the song as a whole features a larger focus on dreamy majesty and guitar-based bliss."

Wishes To Fulfill garnered praise for its focus on instantly memorable hooks, and Pick Me Up, Turn Me Upside Down offers a contrasting and complimentary side of Another Michael, bringing new hues to their vibrant sound. The album is still packed with the elements that make Another Michael so special--highly catchy melodies, smart chord progressions, lush arrangements, and layered harmonies--all while venturing into rewarding untouched sonic territory.

Like Wishes To Fulfill before it, Pick Me Up, Turn Me Upside Down finds Another Michael reveling in their love of song--creating and paying tribute to transcendent musical moments and celebrating the deeply personal relationship that can develop between a listener and music that they truly connect with. “Music is a medium of communication,” explains bassist Nick Sebastiano, “It’s not a purposeful decision to talk about music in our songs but it just inherently means so much to us. If something makes your heart sing, the audience is going to hear it.” Doherty adds, "I think good songs are just ones you can find yourself bringing with you all your life no matter where it takes you."

Another Michael are currently on tour with Tenci, and the band have also announced a West Coast run supporting The Polyphonic Spree. See full itinerary below.
