Blue Violet are back with news of a new EP, single and a spread of Scottish tour dates this Autumn.

Directly following their debut album Late Night Calls (released in the Spring of 2022), the band have been busily working towards its successor in the shape of a new EP entitled: Love, Hate & Forgiveness. Confirmed for release on October 21, the four track release will feature two acoustic reworkings of Late Night Calls classics, plus two brand new offerings including the new single ‘Favourite Jeans’ which is available to hear now.

‘Favourite Jeans’ is a strung-out alternative/acoustic ballad and one that broadly picks up the narrative of previous single ‘Rabbit Hole’ (an acoustic version of which is also featured on this new EP). Yet, whereas ‘Rabbit Hole’ captures the dilemma of someone who finds themselves estranged from their loved ones and struggling with addiction issues; ‘Favourite Jeans’ writes-in a redemptive coda as the protagonist picks up the pieces on the long road to recovery. “It’s about having the courage to pick yourself up after a hard time and the little things you do to find happiness again,” Sarah says.
