Magic Wands release ‘Diamond Rain’, the first track from an album due in early 2027

Los Angeles-based duo Magic Wands released “Diamond Rain” on August 14, 2026 via Metropolis Records as the lead single from an upcoming album scheduled for early 2027. The track, accompanied by a self-directed video employing vintage cameras and mirrors for dreamlike aesthetics, represents the first offering from their next project. The band describes the song as intentionally ambiguous, exploring themes of moving toward light and discovering beauty after darkness. The single concludes an exceptionally prolific eighteen-month period that included the album “Cascades” (October 2025), multiple EPs including “Wishing Well” and “Remixes,” and collaborative efforts such as a John Ashton feature. Magic Wands, formed in Nashville in 2008 by vocalists and guitarists Dexy and Chris Valentine, blend dream-pop, shoegaze, post-punk, and goth influences with textured guitars and ethereal vocals.
