Thee Sinseers’ latest single “There She Goes” arrives in full panoramic sound — western reverb guitar shimmering like a desert sunset at the edges, horns bringing a sweeping big-band grandeur to the center, with the Delfonics, Chi-Lites, and Stylistics as its soul orchestration touchstones. The protagonist is searching for a way to mend a broken heart, and what makes the track land is how human that search feels — held up by a call-and-response between Quiñones and the band that moves between longing and resolve like a conversation with yourself at 2 a.m. There’s no performance of heartbreak here, just the real thing.

Catching up with Thee Sinseers ahead of its new Love Stories (Colemine Records) release, one thing becomes abundantly clear: this is not an LP that explores a neat and tidy love story.

The vision of love put forth on this record is full-spectrum. Think of the seminal 1993 East LA film Blood In Blood Out — three protagonists bound together through hardship, strife, and diverging roads, who ultimately circle back to reckon with why they remain. It’s a similar story here. Love Stories isn’t interested in the happy ending. It’s interested in everything that comes before it, after it, and in spite of it.

Of course, none of this is accidental. More than a new record, Love Stories is a portrait of a band that has finally grown into itself — one that knows exactly who it is and isn’t shy about saying so. As bandleader Joey Quiñones puts it: “It’s a solidifying statement of where we are now. This is our style.”

Bassist Christopher Manjarrez described that confidence as something you can hear: “Everything was just that notch up.” In contrast to their previous debut LP Sinseerly Yours, which had developed organically from a four-piece into an eleven-member ensemble, Love Stories was built from the ground up as a collective effort — every role established before the band entered the studio. “We went in knowing these are the roles that are gonna be played by these people,” Quiñones says. “Everybody was considered wholeheartedly in every arrangement aspect.”

Thee Sinseers’ new album will be available on vinyl, CD, cassette and digital / streaming platforms on September 18, 2026. Click here to pre-order.
