Prepare to be mesmerized by Luxembourg’s musical trailblazers, Pleasing, as they unleash ‘Bleak,’ the electrifying lead single from their upcoming EP dropping this fall via Two Steps Twice.

In 2018, driven by a hunger for more, artist Patrick Miranda joined forces with Xavier Hofmann and Sacha Ewen to birth Pleasing. Since then, they’ve fearlessly explored taboo themes like depression and solitude, captivating audiences at renowned festivals like Motorcultor and Francofolies de la Rochelle in 2023. Now, with ‘Bleak,’ Pleasing invites listeners on a poignant journey through the delicate balance of elegance and despair, challenging us to unravel the enigmatic beauty hidden within life’s darkest moments.

As Pleasing gears up to drop the second part of their interconnected EP series, they remain steadfast in their quest for profound truths, expanding their reach to new audiences and territories.

With their latest single ‘Bleak,’ Pleasing paints a somber portrait of a flower on the brink of blooming. They juxtapose the elegant allure of the flower with the harsh reality of its fleeting existence, urging listeners to delve deeper into the metaphorical layers of meaning that lie beneath the surface—a hallmark of Pleasing’s evocative storytelling.
