Stone Arch Rivals – “Sitting On The Eastside”

Stone Arch Rivals’ new single, “Sitting On The Eastside”, shows the Minneapolis band at their most confident and infectious yet. Released August 1 via Hygh Tension Records (TLG)/Virgin Music Group, the track is the fourth taste of their debut album “That’s What They Say”, set for October 2025. It’s got that undeniable blend of personality and energy that makes you want to keep hitting repeat. Ivan Jackson’s work adds a sleek, soulful punch, meshing perfectly with the band’s already rich and full sound.

The song’s charm lies in how naturally it captures a mood, sunny yet grounded, easygoing yet purposeful. You can almost picture that Minneapolis summer heat while the chorus soars. Claire Spinti’s attractive and rich vocals carry an honest confidence, making the theme of finding your own rhythm in life feel relatable without overcomplication. It’s the kind of track that feels just as good in a crowded bar as it does cruising with the windows down.

If “Sitting On The Eastside” is any indication, Stone Arch Rivals’ upcoming album is going to be one to look out for. Follow the band on social media so you don’t miss any of the music they have lined up for the rest of 2025.
