Big Thief – Double Infinity
Big Thief release their sixth studio album, Double Infinity, out September 5th via 4AD.
Double Infinity includes the previously released singles “All Night All Day”, “Incomprehensible”, “Grandmother” ft Laraaji and “Los Angeles.”
Double Infinity was recorded last winter at the Power Station, New York City. For three solid weeks, the trio would ride bicycles on frozen streets between Brooklyn and Manhattan, meeting in Power Station’s warm wood-panelled room. Together with a community of musicians (Alena Spanger, Caleb Michel, Hannah Cohen, Jon Nellen, Joshua Crumbly, June McDoom, Laraaji, Mikel Patrick Avery, Mikey Buishas), they would play for nine hours a day, tracking together – simultaneously – improvising arrangements and making collective discoveries. The album was recorded live with minimal overdubs. Double Infinity was produced, engineered and mixed by longtime Big Thief collaborator Dom Monks.
Double Infinity will be released digitally and on cassette, CD, and standard black vinyl. Limited green and ‘Sparkle Universe’ vinyl editions.
Big Thief will embark on the first leg of their Somersault Slide 360 Tour in support of Double Infinity in September. The extensive tour – their first US shows in over a year – includes stops at Berkeley’s The Greek Theater, Los Angeles’s The Hollywood Bowl (their largest non-festival headline show yet), Boston’s MGM Music Hall, New York’s Forest Hills Stadium, and their first show in Mexico at Teatro Metropolitan.
