overpass Announces Debut Album “Elsewhere, Always”, Shares New Song “Union Station”
Birmingham-based indie-rock band overpass, consisting of Max Newbold (vocals/guitar), Elliot Rawlings (guitar), India Armstrong (bass) and Jake Bishop (drums), has announced their upcoming debut album “Elsewhere, Always” will be released on June 5, 2026 via Communion Records.
The album comprises 10 tracks, which the band recorded with producer Rich Turvey at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool and mixed by Cenzo Townshend.
From the album, the band released the lead single called “Union Station” January 14, 2026.
The track was written by Elliot Rawlings, India Armstrong, Jake Bishop, Max Newbold, and Rich Turvey, who also produced it.
The accompanying music video was directed by Sal Redpath.
The band lead singer Max Newbold said of the song, “'Union Station' started with hearing someone say 'it's a dog-eat-dog world' like it was just normal.”- He continued, “That idea of life being one big competition freaked me out a bit. I never wanted to fight for jobs or houses or compare myself to everyone else. I’ve always romanticised train stations as the place you run to when you’ve mentally checked out, even if you’re doing it with a half-smile and a bit of self-awareness. It ties into the album as the first step into that theme: growing up clueless, making mistakes, and realising that not having it all figured out is fine.”
