Rising indie-pop band The Juice is ready to unveil their latest anthem, Pieces, released on November 1st. Known for their infectious hooks and high-energy sound, The Juice has crafted a track that’s as emotionally charged as it is stadium-worthy. Fresh off a series of festival performances and a national tour, this five-piece band continues to captivate audiences with songs that blend vulnerability with anthemic force.
Pieces opens softly, with a twinkling melody that draws listeners into an intimate, reflective space. As the track unfolds, it builds into a powerful, high-energy chorus that surges with resilience—a sonic representation of emerging from darkness. Frontman Joe shares, “We wanted to write something that starts off with a gentle vibe and then builds into something big and anthemic, almost like two different songs in one.” The journey from quiet introspection to soaring optimism mirrors life’s ups and downs, making Pieces both a personal anthem and a shared experience.
For bassist Jack, the song’s meaning delves into his own struggles with mental health, including battles with anxiety and moments of despair. “Pieces reflects my own experiences—starting with a slow, sad pace when you’re at your lowest, then building into something more anthemic to capture the joy of seeing better days,” he says. The lyrics remain the same throughout, symbolizing that even in low points, our core selves persist, resilient and unchanged. This raw, heartfelt approach, paired with their dynamic sound, gives Pieces a unique edge that feels both comforting and exhilarating.
The Juice’s lineup—brothers Joe and Jack from Preston, alongside fellow siblings Ross and James, and drummer Leachy from Oldham—brings a deep-rooted connection that translates into their music. Influenced by Northern British legends like The Verve and The Stone Roses, they mix pop sensibility with a rough-edged, heartfelt style, creating a sound that resonates with both indie-pop fans and rock enthusiasts. Even the band’s name has its own story: originally Joe and The Juice, they shortened it after an encounter with Serge from Kasabian at Y Not Festival, sealing their name with his enthusiastic thumbs-up.
With Pieces, The Juice is poised to further cement their place in the UK’s indie-pop scene, joining the ranks of bands that give listeners anthems to both dance to and reflect on. The song’s journey from soft to explosive, paired with themes of hope and resilience, makes Pieces an essential addition to any playlist that celebrates the highs and lows of life.
Catch Pieces on all major streaming platforms from November 1st and follow The Juice on their journey.
