Today, Canadian indie rock band Wintersleep dropped the music video for “You & I.”
The track serves as the third single from the band’s upcoming eighth album, Wishing Moon, set for release on March 27, 2026 via Dine Alone Records.
“You & I” delivers a straightforward indie rock sound, driven by the band’s signature melodic sensibilities and heartfelt energy.
The track offers a solid preview of what’s to come from Wishing Moon, balancing emotional resonance with Wintersleep’s familiar sonic charm.
About the track by Paul:
“I remember receiving this demo idea from Loel and got inspired to work on it immediately.
I was swimming with my kid and it really pairs amazingly well with that sort of activity.
“It had been quite a while since we’d released stuff together and hung out (after COVID and moving to different towns), so when I started working on the lyrics it has this general automatic romantic thing that comes to mind when you think of the phrase ‘you and I.’
But then, just receiving it at a time when I was spending time with my son, and the fact that it was a song from my homie I hadn’t seen in a while, also called to mind the idea of friendship and other forms of relatively intimate relationships that aren’t romantic, and that it all takes care and communication to keep a healthy balance in life.
“It’s hard to put this meaning into a song fully textually, and it’s probably hard to derive that fully from the text of this song alone, but that’s what was going on emotionally when I was working on lyrics.
When we created the other sections and completed the writing together, just feelings of gratitude for close relationships, it all culminated into this sort bridge section hug, which I love when that happens.”
The song arrives with a visualizer produced by RAINBOW LAND, directed by boy wonder and featuring Tony Morrone.
