TENDER Shares Darkly Beautiful New Single “go steady”;  Announces North American Fall Tour

Rising UK indie duo TENDER continues to build hype around their forthcoming third LP Flux with the hypnotic new single “go steady” out via Nettwerk.

In support of Flux, out September 6th, TENDER have also recently announced their tour across the US this autumn, kicking off October 28th in Seattle with stops in SF, LA, Chicago, NYC, and more. The tour will culminate in a trip across the pond for a London headline show at Lafayette on December 9th. Tickets for their fall tour on sale now at tenderofficial.com/tour.

 “go steady” is another lush production from the duo, rich in melodic flourishes. Centered around a meaty trip-hop groove, the track is elevated by elegant string melodies and atmospheric vocal chants as lead singer James Cullen intones dark truths about the male psyche. Speaking about the single’s themes, the duo explained that “go steady” is about “toxic masculinity and calling out people for their shit.”

The track is the follow-up to previous singles “sprinkles,” “come clean,” and “daydreamers,” which heralded their acclaimed 2024 comeback after two years and received BBC Radio 1’s Chillest Show with Sian Eleri, BBC Radio London’s Introducing show with Jess Izzat and further support such as ‘Track of the Week’ on 6 Music with Craig Charles and Huey Morgan show.

With the gorgeous “go steady,” TENDER expands on a new chapter in their musical journey that’s set to be bookended by their upcoming third album, Flux, out September 6th. You can pre-save it here: https://tendermusic.ffm.to/flux
