Joe & The Anchor, a Malmö-based indie pop band, has released their latest track, "Nothing Without You," a sorrowful love song about the pain of unrequited love. This track features Joakim Rosenlund on lead vocals, guitars, bass, synths, and keyboards, Sam Petter Claeson on guitars, synths, keyboards, and backing vocals, Ruben Sonnesson and Robin Zhang on guitars and backing vocals, and Viktor Edsjö on drums and backing vocals exemplifies the band's signature blend of electronic, indie pop, and rock pop with an 80s vibe.
"Nothing Without You" is the first track produced by the band's new member, Sam Petter Claeson, for their future album. Claeson was so enthralled by the song that he knew he had to join Joe & The Anchor, not just for the music, but also for the friendship and creative collaboration. The song highlights the band's experience of independently producing a whole 12-song album, which has given them a great deal of pleasure and delight.
Joe & The Anchor have a rich history of memorable performances, including a notable appearance at the InMusic Festival in Zagreb and supporting Swedish rock legends Mando Diao at Malmö's largest club venue, KB. Their cover of The 1975’s "If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know)" during the pandemic helped them reach an international audience, especially in the Philippines, where a dedicated fan page was started in their honor.
"Nothing Without You" features upbeat, warm guitars, elegant hooks, and emotional vocals that are reminiscent of indie music from the 1990s and early 2000s. The words effectively portray the dichotomy of love and loneliness, imploring listeners to find a way forward. The accompanying music video, directed and produced by Nikolai Hemmingsson and conceptualized by Tints Agency, celebrates the band's renewed love of music and the thrill of performing united.
Joe & The Anchor are happy to announce their upcoming album "Coming Of Age," which will be available digitally on September 20th. The album, recorded and produced by Sam Petter Claeson and Joakim Rosenlund in Ystad and mastered by Magnus Lindberg at Redmount Studios, aims to showcase the band's love and attention to their profession.
"Nothing Without You" is a must-listen for fans of indie pop and rock, with a passionate and infectious sound that will hit home with listeners.
