Sydney indie rock favorites Deep Sea Arcade have returned with their new single “Alone In America,” which is available everywhere out now. The track is the second glimpse into their forthcoming third album, ‘Colourised’, due in early 2026. Drawing deep inspiration from the band’s final tour before the passing of member Nick Weaver, the song is steeped in reflection and longing. It is a cinematic and ethereal track that expertly captures the fragile balance between distance and belonging, finding a moment where everything feels far away yet intensely alive.
The release is paired with a mesmerizing video clip, drenched in psychedelic visuals that bring the dreamlike quality of the song to life, with sunny Americana landscapes twisting into surreal collages. Frontman Nic McKenzie describes the single as a subtle homage to his early influences, saying, “My second love after The Beatles is the band America—who were also produced by George Martin. So many of their songs just make me want to sing harmonies, and ‘Alone in America’ is definitely a bit of a homage to that.” Co produced with Jay Watson (Tame Impala, Pond), the song evolved from stripped back demos into one of Deep Sea Arcade’s most compelling and immersive works yet, solidifying their return as a vital and imaginative Australian indie outfit.
