Blushing is the sixth studio album by American band Copeland. It was released on Valentine's Day 2019 via Tooth & Nail Records.[1] It is the band's follow-up to their 2014 album Ixora, as well as their second album released since their reunion.

## Background

[edit]

After the band finished touring in support of Ixora, Copeland began working on Blushing in 2016. Once again, recording took place at Aaron Marsh's studio, The Vanguard Room, in Lakeland. Marsh himself would also serve as the album's chief producer and engineer, as he did on Ixora.[2] The album features contributions from singer-songwriter Young Summer,[3] as well as a track featuring Ski Beatz and The 83rd.[4]

The album's first single was "Pope", which was released on November 1, 2018.[citation needed] A lyric video for the song was released a week later.[5] The album itself was announced via a Billboard premiere of the next single, "Night Figures", on December 6.[6] Another new song, "On Your Worst Day", was released simultaneously.[7] This was followed a month later by the release of the third single, "Lay Here".[citation needed]
