With Claud
Led by Grammy-winning producer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer/songwriter Jack Antonoff, Bleachers' buoyant, grandly emotional sound draws from '80s pop and college rock. In between his duties with Fun. and as a producer for stars such as Taylor Swift, Lorde, and Lana Del Rey, he delivers heartfelt anthems like "I Wanna Get Better," the project's 2014 certified-platinum debut single. That year's debut album Strange Desire -- which cracked the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 -- presented Bleachers' relatable synth pop in its purest form. Though Antonoff added more ambition and inventive sonics to 2017's Gone Now and revisited his Jersey roots with Bruce Springsteen on 2021's Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night, Bleachers always focused on his finesse at wrapping genuine emotions in big, shiny sounds.
