Our favourite anthemic indie outfit has returned with the release of ‘Signal Fire’. A new facet of Seafret‘s shimmering alternative indie shines bright on their latest track.
‘Signal Fire’ is a soaring alternative indie pop anthem that feels tailor-made for arms-in-the-air moments and cathartic singalongs. From its first shimmering notes, the track builds with intent, gradually stacking emotion and atmosphere until it erupts into a chorus that’s impossible to resist. This is Seafret at their most expansive, bold, heartfelt, and unafraid to lean fully into that big, punchy indie sound.
The chorus is its undeniable centrepiece, bursting with an urgency that begs to be shouted back at full volume. It’s the kind of hook that lodges itself in your chest rather than your head, powered by lyrics that feel instinctive and communal, simple, direct, and designed to be shared. There’s a real sense of release, as if the song exists to pull you out of yourself and into the moment. “‘Signal Fire’ was written as a reminder that help exists and you never have to face the darkness on your own. The story in the verses centres on a relationship, but we wanted the chorus to be more universal and reach beyond that.”
Musically, ‘Signal Fire’ balances polish with passion, pairing sweeping production with a raw emotional core. It’s a track that feels just as at home on festival stages as it does soundtracking late-night drives, lighter held high for added atmosphere. Above all, ‘Signal Fire’ is a reminder of the power of a great indie anthem, one that doesn’t just ask you to listen, but invites you to dance, sing, and feel everything all at once.
