Los Angeles-based indie rock band, Local Natives have announced the release of their fifth studio album Time Will Wait For No One, due out July 7th via Loma Vista Recordings. This record will mark their first full-length effort since 2019’s Violet Street. In celebration of the album announcement, the band has dropped a brand new track, “NYE” today. This single comes as the 4th teaser from the upcoming release, following “Hourglass“, “Desert Snow“, and “Just Before The Morning“. Local Natives have also dropped an accompanying music video to the newest single along with a tour spanning from early August to late September.
Speaking on the new album, the band shares: “This record was made during a time of metamorphosis for us. Former selves melting away as some of us became fathers, endured periods of isolation, loss, and identity crisis. The highs and lows we were feeling at the same time were so extreme. There was a moment halfway through making the album, we played one of the most emotional concerts of our lives.”
They continue: “A sold out show at the Greek Theater in LA, our first performance in almost two years, we didn’t know if it would be our last. As individuals and as a band, we were on the verge of a collapse. Time flows on uncontrollably and change is relentless, and the people you love are the only constants. Out of that reckoning we dissolved everything down to start again, and had the most prolific period of songwriting in our history. This is the first chapter, Time Will Wait For No One.”
