Check out these exclusive behind the scenes photos of Bleachers’ album cover shoot at Electric Lady Studios

Bleachers have shared an exclusive behind-the-scenes look of their shooting the album cover for ‘Everyone For 10 Minutes’ at Electric Lady Studios in New York – check them out on NME below.

In the behind-the-scenes film shot by Chloe Pace, Jack Antonoff and co. can be seen gathered around a busy table for the cover shoot, which later sees Antonoff sat alone, topless and somewhat contorted.

They also move outside the New York studio for a series of shots, with Antonoff perched on the back of a golf buggy in one alongside a puppy. The images come on the heels of the band sharing new single ‘I’m Not Joking’ on Thursday (April 30).

Marking a sonic shift from previously shared ‘Everyone For 10 Minutes’ singles, ‘You And Forever’ and ‘Dirty Wedding Dress’, the newly shared single features Antonoff on the harpsichord and dobro guitar, earnestly declaring: “And I’m not the type to ask you about the ones who came before me, babe/ I’m just glad you’re mine and only, babe / And I’ll hold every door for your love.”

It’s in keeping with the direction of the new album, which was described in a new press release as an “optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful” – you can pre-order/pre-save it here.

Bleachers will hit the road later this year in support of ‘Everyone For 10 Minutes’, which is set for release on May 22 via Dirty Hit. The forthcoming trek is due to kick off in Milan on November 5. Further shows are scheduled in Munich, Berlin, Oslo, Stockholm, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris throughout the month.

£1/€1 from each ticket sold will be donated to The Ally Coalition to support LGBTQ+ youth, and you can find yours here.

The band have already shared two singles from ‘Everyone For 10 Minutes’ in the form of ‘You And Forever’ and ‘Dirty Wedding Dress’. A press release described the collection as an “optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful”.

Their previous, self-titled full-length record arrived in 2024, ahead of a “reimagined” 10th anniversary version of their debut album ‘Strange Desire’. NME gave the former a four-star review, saying that Bleachers’ latest album contained “some of their best material yet”.

Antonoff spoke to NME around the time of its release, and spoke about finding a new version of self-respect throughout his time in the industry.

“[It’s] to do what I love. You know, I live my life in the studio and on tour – that’s how I communicate and feel myself,” he explained. “[But] everyone has a different version of it. I think maintaining it as you define it – and not as it’s defined in a moment and culture – is pretty vital to maintain dignity and our own human experience. Especially as more and more of our lives become like other people’s reflections.

“It’s really important to reject that, especially as an artist or someone in the public eye [where] there’s so much pressure to toe any kind of party line thinking. And the truth is, I have thoughts that aren’t really quantified by any person or community; they’re just my own. And so I don’t want to be, I guess, as readable or predictable as I’d be celebrated [for] if I were to be.”
