Coheed And Cambria Drop ‘Someone Who Can’ Ahead Of New album ‘The Father of Make Believe’

by | Jan 16, 2025

Coheed And Cambria have shared new single Someone Who Can from their forthcoming album The Father Of Make Believe, which is set for release 14th March via Virgin Music Group. In conjunction with the new song, the band shares its heartwarming Mason Mercer-directed video where we get a glimpse at the early days of Coheed And Cambria in and around their hometown of Nyack, New York. Someone Who Can follows the previously shared The Father Of Make Believe singles Blind Side Sonny and Searching For Tomorrow along with Claudio Covers, which arrived at the end of last year and features eight songs reimagined by primary songwriter and lead guitarist Claudio Sanchez including Just Like Heaven by The Cure and Taylor Swift hit Welcome To New York, among others.

Someone Who Can is arguably the band’s most accessible song in their 24 year career. When asked about the meaning behind the song, Sanchez remarked: “When you’re growing up, you’re perpetually trying to understand the world that’s changing around you. Over time, it’s comforting to reach the conclusion that you’ll never truly have things figured out.”

Along with the release, Coheed And Cambria have announced a North American co-headline summer tour with Taking Back Sunday with support from Foxing on all dates. The 25-date tour produced by Live Nation, kicks off on August 16th in St Louis. Ahead of their run with Taking Back Sunday, the band will embark on The Infinite Arc co-headline arena tour with Mastodon, following the Tool In The Sand Festival with Tool, Primus, Mastodon, Eagles Of Death Metal and more in the Dominican Republic this March. This July, the band will perform at 2000 Trees with Kneecap, Taking Back Sunday, Alexisonfire, and more in the United Kingdom. This November, Coheed will embark on their S.S. Neverender 2025 cruise with Thursday, L.S. Dunes, The Dear Hunter, Illuminati Hotties, Zulu and more.

The Father Of Make Believe continues the narrative of The Amory Wars / Vaxis universe, following Coheed And Cambria’s 2022 album Vaxis Act II: A Window Of The Waking Mind. The Father of Make Believe will include the aforementioned singles Blind Side Sonny, arguably Coheed And Cambria’s most aggressive track to date that was complemented by a Max Moore-directed video that unveiled a new villain in The Amory Wars realm, and Searching For Tomorrow, which arrived with an Anthony Scheppard-directed and animated video – check it out below:

For the last 20 years, Coheed And Cambria have continuously broken the mould of what a rock band can be, forging their own path and building a universe around their music unlike any other. Whether it is in the way their genre-spanning approach to songwriting has allowed them to bridge worlds without being contained to one, or the multifaceted story arc of their albums and comic book series which mark the longest running concept story in music, they have consistently shaped new standards, never conformed. Comprised of Claudio Sanchez (Vocals / Guitar), Travis Stever (Guitar), Josh Eppard (Drums) and Zach Cooper (Bass) the band has gripped listeners and press around the globe with their visionary compositions and conceptual mastery.
