Comprised of 11 tracks, Between Us includes the previously released collaborative standouts, including the latest release, What\u2019s On Your Mind?, the disco-esque track is a synth-heavy, indie pop-rock gem, enhanced even further with the distinct sound of San Francisco\u2019s chill-wave kings Poolside. Additional collaborative tracks include the politically charged radio single, Money (featuring Portugal. The Man), and the breezy tune, Ride (featuring GROUPLOVE) which they took to the stage at last month\u2019s JUNO Awards in the group\u2019s hometown of Hamiton, ON at the TD Coliseum. The band performed the upbeat track amidst a hyper-realistic viewer engaged set that integrated greenery and Truman-esque break in the fourth wall bike riding.<\/p>\n<p><iframe data-testid=\"embed-iframe\" style=\"border-radius:12px\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/artist\/3ShGiAyhxI6Rq3TknZ3gfk?utm_source=generator\" width=\"800\" height=\"510\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Additional tracks on the new album span across multiple musical genres and eras from the stripped back, Desire\u2019s Got Some Questions, and the midtempo guitar driven Universe Talking to the more classic indie rock Two Hearts. Freshly teased Imagine Barcelona \u2013 a dreamy, earnest love song,  is sure to be a fan favourite. Arkells bring a mischievous sound to the forefront on Rumour, before bringing the record to a close with the aching track with winding chords, Escape Door.<\/p>\n<p>Between Us is available now for in physical formats including vinyl, CD and signed edition grass-green vinyl.
