Real Estate have announced their sixth album.
'Daniel' will arrive on February 23 via Domino, following up 2020's 'The Main Thing' and the subsequent 2021 EP, 'Half A Human'.
Recorded over nine days with Grammy Award-winning producer Daniel Tashian at RCA Studio A in Nashville, it comprises 11 songs, including the newly shared first single, Water Underground, which offers up the New Jersey band's jangly indie-rock sound.
Head below to view the track's Edmond Hawkins-directed video, inspired by the '90s Nickelodeon sitcom The Adventures of Pete & Pete, and starring cast members Danny Tamberelli and Michael C. Maronna. Frontman and songwriter Martin Courtney said:
"This song is about writing songs. I think Water Underground is like the unconscious, the mysterious part of your brain where creativity comes from. The constant flow of music in the back of your head. You get an idea while driving or walking the dog or something and you want to hold on to it."
Tamberelli added: "New Jersey roots are hard to break. Julian, Alex and Martin all grew up one town away from me and were actually friends with the younger siblings of my friends from Ridgewood. They told me they even saw me perform at the local bandshell with some of those older siblings while I was in high school. The video brings it full circle and adding my dear old friends from the show into the fold really tied it all together."
Following the record's release, Real Estate will embark on a North American tour, kicking off on March 1 in Vancouver and concluding in Atlanta on May 26. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (December 1).
