CHVRCHES returns with “Over,” a striking new release that signals the beginning of an exciting chapter. Featuring Lauren Mayberry on vocals alongside Iain Cook and Martin Doherty on synthesisers, the single also marks the band’s first release under Island Records and EMI Records. Rather than waiting to build a full album, the trio chose to share a song they felt genuinely excited about, giving listeners a fresh taste of what comes after the acclaimed Screen Violence era. Written by Iain Cook, Martin Doherty, Lauren Mayberry, Oscar Holter, and Matthew Koma, and produced by Oscar Holter, “Over” arrives with confidence and purpose.
Musically, “Over” captures the emotional weight of moving beyond the past while maintaining the shimmering synth-pop identity that has become CHVRCHES’ signature. The lyrics evoke resilience, reflection, and the courage to leave behind what no longer belongs, creating a heartfelt atmosphere that feels both intimate and uplifting. Every element works together to deliver a polished yet emotionally resonant listening experience.
The release is further elevated by an accompanying music video directed by Leah Barylsky, adding a compelling visual dimension to the song’s fresh momentum. “Over” stands as more than a standalone single, it is a confident statement of renewal, offering fans a captivating glimpse into the next evolution of CHVRCHES while honouring everything that has brought the band to this moment.
