Wye Oak announce new album, The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs

Wye Oak have announced a new album. On April 6, the band will release their fifth album, The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs, via Merge Records. The album was recorded after the band’s two members—Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack—spent concentrated periods of time in each other’s cities (Marfa, Texas and Durham, North Carolina, respectively) shaping and honing the record. The first single is the title track, which can be streamed below. The band is also heading out on tour; take a look at those dates below.

The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs follows 2016’s Tween.
