Most bands want 15 minutes of fame. The Joy Formidable just want 15 minutes of your time. The Welsh trio are taking us on a mighty sonic trip with the release of “Share My Heat,” a rousing alt-rock escapade that arrives today (September 26) via Enci Records, complete with a wild animated video that supplies psychedelic visuals across its entire 15-minute runtime. Hot damn.
“‘Share My Heat’ is about true connection & love,” says guitarist and vocalist Ritzy Bryan. “Deep, selfless love between humans is a beautiful part of our existence, but I’m also singing about our inherent love for nature, the living world & our kinship to everything: Plants, animals, mountains & lake. Can we repair our relationship & bring more reciprocity, compassion and companionship to a world that already gives us so much?” Well, we’ll soon find out.
The epic “Share My Heat” is the third and final Joy Formidable single in a string of new releases, all following 2021 album Into The Blue. At a time when most artists are shortening songs to pad play counts on streaming services, The Joy Formidable have snapped back in to the other direction to release a single song that’s longer than some new EPs.
