Loving Announce New Album Any Light
Loving have announced their new album Any Light will drop on February 9th, 2024, via Last Gang Records/MNRK. Ahead of the LP’s arrival, the band have shared lead single “Medicine.” “This was playfully written as a chronicle of our friend’s recent psychedelic adventures, he’s the sort who is always looking for a cure,” Henderson notes. “Medicine” is out now alongside a vibrant video directed by John Andrews. Loving includes multi-instrumentalists/songwriters Jesse Henderson and David Parry
The duo have also announced an extensive North American headline tour this spring that includes a March 2nd Los Angeles show at The Regent and a March 21st New York show at Le Poisson Rouge. Tickets go on-sale Friday, December 1st at 10am local time. The band is currently on tour across Europe and the UK supporting Alice Phoebe Lou.
Any Light took shape at Risque Disque studio on Vancouver Island, with Loving greatly expanding their musical vocabulary and repertoire. The album encompasses a far more elaborate sound than its predecessor, layering its lush arrangements with trumpet, timpani, vibraphone, strings, and organ—all new territory for the band. Despite diverging from the finespun indie-folk of their past work, Loving imbue every song with the poetic introspection first shown on their 2016 debut EP, as well as the disarmingly warm presence they’ve brought to stages around the world.
Although Henderson and Parry handled most of Any Light’s instrumentation on their own—with Henderson playing piano, Wurlitzer, guitar, and organ and Parry’s contributions including guitar, bass, drums, percussion, and additional keys —Loving also shaped the album’s richly detailed tracks with the help of several musician-friends, including singer/songwriter Evan Cheadle on guitar, multi-instrumentalist Colin Nealis on strings, and Keenan Mittag-Degala on percussion. “Medicine” follows last month’s single and album closer, “Blue.”
