The Drums (the project led by Jonny Pierce) have shared a new song, “Obvious.” The single is out now via ANTI-. Listen below, followed by The Drums’ upcoming summer tour dates this July and August.

Pierce had this to say about the song in a press release: “Unwavering love has shown itself to be stronger than any of my fears and self-protections. ‘Obvious’ is a joyous song about that transformative moment, of finally lifting up my head, opening my eyes, and finding steadfast love surrounding me from all angles. It’s about the realization that I’ve been loved all along, but I am just now feeling safe enough to let myself see it.”

The track follow “I Want It All,” a new song The Drums shared in April, and “Plastic Envelope” and “Protect Him Always,” two new songs The Drums shared in May. The Drums’ last album, Brutalism, came out in 2019 via ANTI-. Pierce has a new Drums album in the works.
