Mad Honey To Release New Album On May 15; Share New Single “Moshfeghian”

Bridge Over Cumberland— Mad Honey‘s second full-length release on Deathwish Inc. and Sunday Drive Records — marks a bold step forward for the band. Incoming May 15, 2026, the album is confident, assured, and undoubtedly their most complete work to date.

Ahead of the album’s release date, Mad Honey share their latest single, the richly textured and sonically striking “Moshfeghian.”  Vocalist Tuff Sutcliffe says the song “…feels like the thesis statement of the whole record. It gets to the core of what we’re exploring: nostalgia, change, and the desire to hold on while letting go. Writing it helped us clarify the themes that run through all 11 tracks, and it’s the song that most fully captures the spirit and energy of BOC.” 

Debuting in 2018, Mad Honey quickly became one of the buzziest acts in the prolific OKC shoegaze scene, with lead vocalist Tuff Sutcliffe’s poignant lyricism serving as an enigmatic centerpiece. For this album, the band’s most collaborative effort yet, the production allows Sutcliffe’s shadowy presence to stand tall against a backdrop of billowing guitars. The eleven tracks unfold as a series of snapshots tracing the silhouettes of heartaches both platonic and romantic, both quotidian and cosmic.

By the time a gentle piano denouement carries us to the conclusion of the Bridge Over Cumberland, listeners are left with the sense that in spite of Sutcliffe so often finding herself unmoored and dealing with all of the ways in which deep feelings seemingly define us and threaten to destroy us when an important interpersonal dynamic comes to its inescapable conclusion, there’s ultimately a quiet conviction that all of this emotional pain can eventually result in hard-won growth. 

Bridge Over Cumberland therefore suggests that if you define yourself by these connections, what you are left with when they come to their inevitable end is a crossroads, both a risk of self-destruction and an opportunity for reinvention. It’s a tense, nervy conclusion, but also an empowering one. And given the accomplishment that this album represents, we can find solace in the fact that this time, reinvention has won out.
