Following on from a 2024 which saw the band appear alongside exciting new talent such as Lake Malice, Orchards and Love Rarely, self-proclaimed ‘losercore’ quartet Hamartia have released their brand new single, ‘Bloom’ – with a debut headline show slated for February 12th at Cardiff’s Tiny Rebel. 

‘Bloom’ is an anti-Valentine’s anthem about coming to terms with the fact that not only has your relationship has run its course, but you’ve lost yourself in the process. It’s about realising that it’s better to be alone and totally free to be yourself, than it is to feel restricted, stuck and suffocated in a relationship – and using that freedom to try and reclaim what’s left of yourself.

Vocalist Sophie Smith said “Bloom is another track that feels to us like a three-minute long post-breakup therapy session. We’ve all been in a position where we’ve changed who we are for somebody in the hopes that it ‘fixes’ something – but in reality, it does the opposite.”
