Wasia Project steps into an exciting new chapter with “Bleeding Gold,” a luminous and emotionally resonant single that arrives alongside the announcement of their long-awaited debut album, Nocturne, due September 18th via AWAL. Formed by siblings Will Gao and Olivia Hardy, the duo has built a reputation for blurring the lines between indiepop, classical composition, soul, and electronica, and “Bleeding Gold” finds them expanding that vision into richer, more immersive territory. At its heart, “Bleeding Gold” is a meditation on nostalgia, growing up, and learning to carry the past forward without being defined by it. The track offers another compelling glimpse into Nocturne, a debut album that transforms coming-of-age uncertainty into something cinematic, expansive, and deeply cathartic. Exploring themes of identity, isolation, connection, and modern life, the record embraces a darker, more nocturnal sound palette than the duo’s earlier work, weaving together dance floor euphoria, intimate piano balladry, modern soul, and electronic textures into a world entirely their own. Since emerging in 2019, Wasia Project has steadily cultivated one of the most devoted fanbases in alternative pop, propelled by beloved releases including “ur so pretty,” “Petals on the Moon,” and the transitional EP Isotope. Their sold-out headline tours across the U.K. and U.S., alongside support dates with Laufey and growing acclaim from publications including British Vogue, Rolling Stone, NPR, and The Guardian, have cemented them as one of the most exciting young acts working today.
