Mayday Parade continue their 20th anniversary celebration with the release of “One Day At A Time,” a bittersweet track from SAD — the second installment of their three-part album project, arriving 3rd October 2025.
Reflective and steeped in nostalgia, the song embraces life’s highs and lows while acknowledging the inevitable changes of growing older. Guitarist Brooks Betts describes it as “A song about growing through life and getting better as you go. Correcting the past mistakes and understanding that life changes and evolves. It’s self reflection and knowing that no one is perfect.”
“One Day At A Time” follows debut single “Under My Sweater,” an old-school emo anthem that proudly wears its inspirations on its sleeve, nodding to the sounds of early 2000s pop punk. Both tracks will appear on SAD, which once again reunites the band with longtime collaborators Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount, and showcases Mayday Parade leaning into atmosphere and introspection while retaining the soaring melodies, sharp hooks, and emotional honesty that have defined their career.
With over 1.43 billion streams, platinum and gold singles, and a catalog that helped define a generation of emo and alternative music fans, Mayday Parade remains as vital and creatively energized as ever. Catch them on tour this fall with All Time Low as well as at this year’s When We Were Young festival.
