The Staves have laid out plans for their new album, 'All Now'.
Recorded with John Congleton, the follow-up to 2021's 'Good Woman' will arrive on March 22, marking their first full-length release on Communion Records.
The record, also their first without their sister Emily Staveley-Taylor, was previewed in September with the single You Held It All.
As a further taster, Jess and Camilla have dropped the record's opener and title track, which shows off their signature vocal harmonies over a pulsating rhythm. Head below to view the accompanying video, directed by James Arden. Commenting on the record, Jess and Camilla said:
"It’s a stream of consciousness about frustration and feeling overwhelmed with modernity. Kind of a rejection of the performative way we have to express ourselves now in order for it to be deemed valid."
On the new clip, they added: "We were in love with the old footage of singer songwriters performing in shows like The Old Grey Whistle Test, and the way the audience hung on the singer’s every word.
"We wanted to play with the idea of All Now being an ideology and a message. Something that came from artists and creatives, but is then hijacked and commodified by corporate creeps, preaching the message to gain power."
Alongside the news, the band have confirmed a special album launch show at London's Moth Club for December 4. Tickets go on sale at 9am on Thursday (November 23).
