Welcome Naima Bock to Fire Talk! Watch Video for New Single, "Rocks"
Today, Naima Bock announces her signing to Fire Talk/Breakfast Records, announces a 2027 EU/UK Tour, and shares her new single/video, “Rocks.” Bock’s first music since the highly acclaimed Below A Massive Dark Land (2024) and standalone single “Rolling” (2025), “Rocks” is a close and intimate preview into the new material she’s been debuting across recent tours with Neil Young, Dinosaur Jr. and Jake Xerxes Fussell. These shows have seen Bock experimenting with stripped back, two-and-three-piece setups, rearranging the detailed compositions and percussive flourishes that graced her previous records and embracing a more direct approach to songwriting.
Possessing an almost breathless urgency from the first second, “Rocks” is the perfect introduction to this new direction. Led initially by finger-picked guitar and Bock’s unwaveringly resonant voice, “Rocks” swells and surges with the addition of melodica, mouth trumpet, and choral background vocals bringing an almost ethereal intensity to its final moments. Yet, for all these shifts, “Rocks” also never quite finds resolution, lingering on the listless feeling of being everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
