Blanket

Inspired by the ambient soundscapes and post-rock stylings of acts such as Sigur Rós, This Will Destroy You, and Caspian, Blanket are an alternative rock quartet from Blackpool in Lancashire, U.K. They put out their debut EP, Our Brief Encounters, in 2017 and returned in 2018 with the single "Worlds Collide." The track appeared on Blanket's first full-length, How to Let Go, which arrived later that year. The band spent time honing their follow-up, 2021's Modern Escapism, which was preceded by the shoegaze-inspired lead single "Where the Light Takes Us."
