Albany-based alt-pop rock trio drops follow-up to #1 radio airplay hit, “Magic Feeling.”
ALBANY, NY – April 23, 2025 – Alt-pop rock trio The Perfect Storm returns with their heartfelt new single “We Fell in Love,” an irresistible blend of vulnerability, melody, and vintage charm. Released via MTS Records/Virgin/Universal, the track marks the band’s first new music since the February debut of their acclaimed album Maiden Voyage, and it promises to be the soundtrack of springtime romance.
“We Fell in Love” is a shimmering, harmony-rich anthem that captures the spontaneous spark and youthful innocence of an unexpected connection. With its catchy chorus and nostalgic lyrical touches like the doo-wop-influenced “sha na na na na,” the single showcases the band’s ability to blend modern pop sensibility with classic rock warmth. Written collectively by members James Krakat (guitar, lead vocals), Matty Kirtoglou (drums, vocals), and Ethan Lynch (bass, backing vocals), the song reflects the band’s creative synergy and emotional depth.
“It’s about that moment when everything changes,” says Krakat. “When you realize love is right in front of you—even if you never expected it. It’s sweet, it’s real, and it’s us.”
The Perfect Storm—hailed as one of Rolling Stone’s 2025’s most exciting new acts—formed during the isolation of the pandemic, when longtime friends Krakat and Kirtoglou reconnected through music. Joined in 2022 by Lynch, the trio quickly became a force in the Capital District music scene, known for their dynamic live shows and genre-defying style that fuses alt-pop, rock, and alt-country.
Their 2023 singles “Lucky Guy” and “Magic Feeling” saw chart-topping success, with the latter hitting #1 on the National Radio Hits chart. With the release of Maiden Voyage earlier this year, the band cemented their place as heartfelt storytellers with stadium-sized hooks.
“We Fell in Love” continues that trajectory, offering fans a fresh taste of the band’s evolving sound while staying true to their emotionally honest roots.
