Midlake
A Bridge To Far
BELLA1688 // 7 November 2025
For over two decades, Midlake has quietly built a world of their own—rooted in the college-town charm of Denton, Texas, but expansive in sound and spirit. With their sixth studio album, A Bridge To Far, the band returns with a record that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. It's an album about hope—not in some abstract sense, but as a human necessity. “Hope is a need,” says frontman Eric Pulido. “To look beyond, above what is. We can all relate on many varying levels.”
Recorded at The Echo Lab in Denton and produced by Sam Evian, the sessions for A Bridge To Far were instinctive and unforced. “Everything felt effortless and authentic,” Pulido says. “We didn’t overthink things.” That ease translated into a sound both atmospheric and grounded—cinematic without excess, deeply felt without sentimentality.
