Mainland Break

Mainland Break – fresh off an Australian tour – presents One Way Ticket to Midnight: a jangling indie rock record that’s brimming with the propulsive energy of The Feelies and packed with chiming guitars that are evocative of R.E.M.

One Way Ticket to Midnight takes the listener through a lonely, reflective night that recalls distant friendships, lost love, and missed opportunity. It begins at sundown, with the golden nostalgia of “Calling After” and builds to the revelry of “One Way Ticket to Midnight” – set at the height of the night. The album works towards sunrise, but never realizes the dawn, and leaves the listener alone and grasping at fading memories.

The album touts production by Mark Anderson (Sylvan Esso), mixing by Joey Oaxaca (White Reaper, twen, Mamalarky), and mastering by Dave Cooley (DIIV, M83, The Linda Lindas).
