Charly Bliss 'Calling You Out' New Single A Radiant Return to Form

Charly Bliss has returned with "Calling You Out," an infectious new single that perfectly encapsulates the vibrant energy and emotional depth fans have come to expect from the band. Set to feature on their forthcoming album, FOREVER, out August 16 on Lucky Number, the track is accompanied by a visually arresting video directed by Adam Kolodny, drawing inspiration from the Beastie Boys’ iconic “Shake Your Rump” video and Wong Kar-wai’s cult classic, Fallen Angels.
"Calling You Out" captures new love's thrilling yet tumultuous nature, with Eva Hendricks candidly exploring themes of jealousy and self-sabotage. Her introspective lyrics and the band’s signature power-pop sound create a compelling narrative of vulnerability and self-discovery. Eva’s raw honesty—“I wasted a lot of time, in the beginning, trying to poke holes, to see if it was all for real”—resonates deeply, highlighting a universal struggle with trust and insecurity.
