Big Thief annoncerer nyt album og deler første singlen ’UFOF’ - 2019 tour datoer annonceret
U.F.O.F er navnet på det ventede tredje album af Big Thief, der udkommer den 3. maj på Domino / Playground Music i Skandinavien. I dag deler bandet første sang fra albummet, Lyt til første singlen ’UFOF’ HER
Big Thief består af Adrianne Lenker (guitar, vokal), Buck Meek (guitar), Max Oleartchik (bass) og James Krivchenia (trommer), de har brugt de sidste 4 år på at turnere verdenen, vinde loyalitet hos et entusiastisk og hurtigt voksende publikum. Deres første to back-to-back albumudgivelser Masterpiece ( 2016) og Capacity (2017) er blevet analyseret, grædt til, danset til, rost af anmeldere, imiteret, nynnet stille og sundet højt. De har lagt soundtracket til fyldte restauranter, svære samtaler, cowboy barer, yoga timer, køreture og ensomme soveværelser.
U.F.O.F. blev indspillet i Washington ved Bear Creek Studios. I et stort hytte-agtigt rum, satte bandet deres instrumenter op til at indspille live med Dom Monks og producer Andrew Sarlo, der også stod bag deres tidligere albums. Eftersom de allerede har spillet sangene på turné var de rolige og klar på at eksperimentere. Det rå materiale kom hurtigt. Nogle sange blev skrevet få timer før de skulle indspilles og forløste sig med det samme, i første indspilning.
“Making friends with the unknown… All my songs are about this,” siger Lenker; “If the nature of life is change and impermanence, I’d rather be uncomfortably awake in that truth than lost in denial.”
Big Thief tager på en omfattende turne, som heldigvis også bringer dem forbi Danmark, hvor bandet spiller på Lille Vega i København den 8. august. Mere info om koncerten kan ses HER.
