Ahead of the release of their new album Illuminator, dropping August 23rd via Captured Tracks, Gift have shared new single “Later.” The track was co-written by the band’s multi-instrumentalists Jessica Gurewitz and vocalist/guitarist TJ Freda. “While writing Illuminator I found myself clinging to intense emotions, reluctant to release them. ‘Later’ stands out as one of the darkest songs I’ve made,” Freda explains. “Making it was cathartic, diving into darker themes. The song explores surrendering to the overwhelming sensation of life slipping away before my eyes.”

In support of Illuminator GIFT will embark on an international tour, including their headline tour in the US and UK. All shows – including a hometown album release party at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom on September 20th.
