Loose Wing’s sound is a hook-laden, swirling blend of psychedelic Americana and old-school college rock, dark and sometimes ominous yet rooted in indie-pop tradition. The songs are written by Claire Tucker, whom you may recognize as guitarist and vocalist from Seattle psych-gaze mainstays Black Nite Crash. Claire is joined by her husband Jack Peters on bass, and the lineup is filled out by Olie Eshleman (Corespondents, Annie Ford Band, Evening Bell) on pedal steel and guitar, and the truly extraordinary drummer-about-town Aimee Zoe (Harborrats).

The Hugs push their alternative pop foundation into forward-thinking territory—blending classic song craft with subtle experimentation and modern production choices that feel distinctly 2026 without chasing indie trends.

Portland, OR–based alternative pop band The Hugs return with Waking Up In The Future, their ninth full-length album, released June 5, 2026. The record finds the band expanding their brit pop-influenced alternative sound into something more reflective, cinematic, and forward-looking—balancing melodic immediacy with late-night introspection.

Across nine tracks, Waking Up In The Future explores time, futuristic themes, romance, and quiet optimism (in an increasingly fast paced digital world), pairing warm guitar textures and hook-driven songwriting with subtle electronic elements, big drums, and lo-fi atmospheres. Songs shift effortlessly between intimate, late-night moments to expansive and cinematic passages. (New Album Out Now ~ June 5th, 2026)
