Comets” is the follow-up to last fall’s confrontational “Abandoned Love” and a surprise Bandcamp Friday drop just before Valentine’s Day of hazy beat-driven ballad “Just You And Me.” All three tracks are featured on Arrows of Athena’s forthcoming sophomore album Daydreaming, out April 3 via Belhaven Records.

With “Comets,” perhaps the most expansive and ultra-sensory track to date from the creative galaxy of Jac-Lyn Gibson (vocals, visuals, and storytelling) and Scott Lerner (guitar, bass, synth, drum programming, and engineering), the duo take a modern and glossy sound coated in blissful noise and apply it to a tale as old as time: The perseverance, and ultimate success, of a woman who was doubted by those around her.

Arrows of Athena are also adding another layer to their universe,as they recently made their live debut , performing Wave Radio Boston’s On The Record showcase in Lowell. Lerner has tapped former bandmates in 2000s indie stalwarts The Crushing Low to round out the live ensemble, and now he and Gibson are back on stage together since performing in rock band Pure Fiction some two decades ago.

I am both excited and nervous!” Gibson admits. “It has been about 20 years since I last got in front of a live audience so I have mixed emotions but I couldn’t be in better company. I just need to pull off that band-aid and embrace all of it. I feel really lucky to be able to revisit that chapter of my life and to have my kids in the audience will be so great. I’m looking forward to it!”

Arrows Of Athena are a duo you need to set your sights on. A well crafted gem like “Comets”, doesn’t come along every day . So make sure you don’t miss it.
