Belgian indie rock outfit The Bernadette Maries release their new single ‘The Closer You Look.’ The track arrives ahead of the band’s debut album, set for release in 2026 through the label.

Blending post-punk energy with shoegaze and dream-pop textures, ‘The Closer You Look’ leans into introspection and mood-driven songwriting. The band draws from influences like DIIV, Fontaines D.C., Cocteau Twins, and The Stone Roses, shaping a sound that balances melancholy, grit, and melodic pull. The single arrives with an official video and marks a shift toward a more expansive sonic direction.

‘The Closer You Look’ is available now on all streaming platforms.
