New Music: Miracles

            

The Academy Is... have released a new single "Miracle," the second from their long-awaited new album, Almost There, arriving via I Surrender Records on March 27, 2026. The song sways between intense, driving guitars and reflective moments underlined by glimmering tones. The band throws themselves into the iridescence headfirst, as William Beckett sings, "I need to love again/Turn me on my head/I need to feel the warmth/Tell me I'm not dead." "With this track, we were chasing the feeling of when you discovered your new favorite song..." guitarist Mike Carden explains. "'Miracle' reminds us of LimeWire era vibes; finally finding that song that takes you by surprise, a very distinct feeling. We wanted it to hit and pull you straight in. We feel like...mission accomplished."
