Bon Iver Announce Fourth Album 'i,i', Share Two New Tracks
Thursday, 11 July 2019
Written by Laura Johnson
Bon Iver will release their fourth album later this summer.
The Justin Vernon-led band will put out 'i,i', the follow up to 2016's '22, A Million ', on August 30 through Jagjaguwar. Introducing the record on their website, they said
"Recording over a long time at April Base in Wisconsin but finishing at Sonic Ranch in Texas allowed us to feel confident, comfortable, and completely free of distraction. The sense of community around the record grew through honest, generous inspiration within the group of artists involved in the creative process of the record. The thirteen new songs on i,i complete a cycle: from the winter of For Emma, Forever Agocame the frenetic spring of Bon Iver, Bon Iver, and the unhinged summer of 22, A Million. Now, fall arrives early with i,i."
Alongside the album announcement, Bon Iver have shared two new tracks featuring Buddy Ross, Francis Starlite, the Brooklyn Youth Chorus with Bryce Dessner, Camilla Staveley-Taylor, Jenn Wasner, Rob Moose, and more. Faith is a warm composition busy with indie and electronic influences, whereas Jelmore is a more pared back, disjointed electronic number.
Bon Iver will tour the new record across North America this autumn. Joining Vernon, Sean Carey, Matthew McCaughan, Michael Lewis, and Andrew Fitzpatrick in the Bon Iver live band is Jenn Wasner (Wye Oak and Flock of Dimes). Feist, Indigo Girls, Sharon Van Etten, and Yo La Tengo will support on select dates.
Prior to this they've lined up a handful of European festival appearances for the summer.
