Rising artist Aidan Bissett shares new single “ricochet,” a raw, alt-pop anthem exploring toxic love.
With his debut album on the horizon, breakout artist Aidan Bissett returns with “ricochet,” a stirring blend of indie-rock grit and alt-pop melody. Out now via Capitol Records, the single offers a layered portrait of emotional entrapment — the kind that keeps pulling you back in, no matter how much it hurts.
“I feel like this song is the perfect balance between pop and alternative,” says Bissett. “But getting ‘ricochet’ to the place it’s in now took over 6 months. Not until we re-recorded all the instruments in a live room to give it that full-band feel did it reach its potential.”
Produced by Andrew Wells (The Vaccines, Biig Piig) and mixed by Tony Hoffer (Albert Hammond Jr., Phoenix), “ricochet” is driven by splashy drums, dynamic guitar work, and a warm, analog feel that amplifies Bissett’s lyrical vulnerability. “You ricochet back into my life / You always come back to say goodbye…” he sings, reflecting the emotional push-and-pull of a love that leaves bruises and confusion in its wake. 
Following the 2025 release of “are we in love yet?,” Bissett has made it clear this next chapter will be his boldest yet. With over 250 million global streams and a billion TikTok video views, he’s been spotlighted by Spotify Pop Rising, Rolling Stone, and TIDAL Magazine as one of the most promising young voices in pop today.
Having supported tours with Valley, Lauv, and Claire Rosinkranz, and headlined sold-out shows globally, Aidan Bissett is ready for what’s next — and “ricochet” is a powerful sign of what’s to come.
