The Canadian indie pop band Vacations released their second single “I See Myself In You” on July 10, 2026, ahead of their third studio album Pursuit of…, according to the band’s official website and verified press materials. The track, described as a “melodic exploration of self-reflection,” marks the first new music from the group since their 2024 album Modern Days.

Details of the Upcoming Album “Pursuit of…”

Announced in a press release dated June 2026, Pursuit of… is set for a fall 2026 release and features 12 tracks produced by Grammy-winning engineer Dave Cerf. The album’s title reflects the band’s creative process, with frontman Adam Lefkovits stating, “We’re chasing a sound that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking.” The first single, “I See Myself In You,” debuted on streaming platforms with a music video directed by filmmaker Sarah Lin, who previously collaborated on the band’s 2022 single City Lights.

Context Within Vacations’ Discography

Vacations, formed in 2010, gained prominence with their 2013 album North of the Sun, which peaked at No. 13 on the Canadian Albums Chart. Their 2024 follow-up Modern Days included the Billboard-charting track Runaway Hearts. The new single continues the band’s thematic focus on emotional introspection, a style praised by The Guardian as “a blend of synth-pop and lo-fi intimacy.”

Industry Reactions and Release Strategy

Music publication Rolling Stone Canada called “I See Myself In You” a “bold step forward” for the band, noting its “richer production and more mature lyricism.” The track is available on all major streaming services, with a physical vinyl release planned for October 2026. Fans can pre-order the album through the band’s website, which also includes a limited-edition merch bundle.

The release of “I See Myself In You” follows a trend of indie acts leveraging social media for direct-to-fan engagement, a strategy highlighted in a 2025 Billboard analysis of emerging artists. Vacations’ approach aligns with their previous success in building a loyal following through platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
