Indigo Girls Announce First New Album In Four Years

Long-time friends and collaborators Amy Ray and Emily Sailers — collectively known as the Indigo Girls — have announced the June release of their first new studio full-length in four years, One Lost Day.

The album will drop Down Under via Vanguard Records/Caroline Australia on Friday, 12 June, all the way from the Nashville, Tennessee, studios at which it was recorded. The women conscripted new producer Jordan Brooke Hamlin (Lucy Wainwright Roche) and mixer Brian Joseph (Bon Iver, Kathleen Edwards, Sufjan Stevens), at Justin Vernon's Wisconsin-based April Base Studios, to help shape the 13-track record and give the Indigo Girls the best sonic platform on which to place their finely honed tunes.

The first taste from the forthcoming release is new single Happy In The Sorrow Key, which wove its way onto the internet about a month ago and has been steadily building anticipation for One Lost Day - the Indigo Girls' 14th studio album - ever since. Have a listen below.

If you're keen on what you hear above, you'll be pleased to know that One Lost Day will be released digitally a couple of weeks ahead of its physical counterpart, on Friday, 29 May. See Caroline Australia's website for more information.
