If you\u2019ve been keeping tabs on the CHVRCHES<\/a><\/strong> universe lately, you\u2019ll know things have been surprisingly active. While the Scottish trio are back in the studio working on their fifth album. The past few years have also brought the \u201cScreen Violence\u201d<\/strong> era, the 10th-anniversary reissues of \u201cEvery Open Eye\u201d<\/strong> and \u201cThe Bones of What You Believe<\/strong>\u201c. Notably, also, Lauren Mayberry<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s solo debut \u201cVicious Creature<\/strong>\u201c.<\/p>\n However, Lauren isn\u2019t the only member branching into new territory. Now, Martin Doherty<\/strong> unveils The Leaving<\/strong>, a brand-new project created alongside longtime CHVRCHES drummer Jonny Scott<\/strong>.

The Leaving serves as a space where Martin can reconnect with the indie-rock foundations that first launched his musical journey. At the same time, Jonny Scott moves fully into the creative spotlight, transforming the longtime rhythm keeper into a co-architect of a darker, heavier sonic universe.<\/p>\n As a result, the pair carve out an entirely new identity. The Leaving add:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201c\u201cSaved\u2019<\/strong> is a look inside the mind of someone on the verge of mental collapse. Paranoia. Hypochondria. Agoraphobia.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
