Sports return with shimmering new single 'If You Want Me'

Dream-pop duo Sports, the long-running collaboration between Cale Chronister and Christian Theriot, have returned with 'If You Want Me', a groove-soaked slice of alt-pop that marks the beginning of a vibrant new chapter in their evolution.

Built around a smooth bassline, crisp percussion, and hazy retro textures, 'If You Want Me' radiates with a sunny optimism that belies its emotional depth. At its heart, the track is a plea for unconditional love and acceptance, a message both intimate and universal.

“If You Want Me is about choosing love over control,” the duo share. “It’s a plea to stop trying to mold someone into our idea of who they should be, and instead accept them exactly as they are. And also wanting the same in return. It’s a declaration of openness.”
