Rebecca Foon announces new album Black Butterflies

Rebecca Foon announces her new album Black Butterflies, will arrive on October 24, 2025, via Envision Records (Colin Stetson). Ahead of the album’s arrival, the cellist, composer, producer, and environmental activist shares the lead track, “In a Time of Truth”, alongside a music video directed by Kaveh Nabatian.
Black Butterflies was recorded in her barn in the Laurentians and co-produced with longtime collaborator Jace Lasek. Guest appearances from Patrick Watson (vocals, piano), bassist Mishka Stein, drummer Andrew Barr, beat maker Sankara Atsilut, and vibraphonist Bruce Cawdron bring rich texture to the album’s atmospheric core.
As Foon describes, “The album is about quiet resilience — the strength to feel deeply, the courage to heal, and the belief that something beautiful can still take flight.”
The accompanying video, directed by Kaveh Nabatian and shot in black and white by Simran Dewan, features the performance of dancer Léa Noblet Di Ziranaldi. At its center, a moving mirror becomes both object and metaphor, reflecting the dancer’s transformation and the quiet power that emerges from being fully seen. Minimalist yet emotionally charged, the visual mirrors the song’s invitation to listen — to ourselves, to one another, and to the world in flux.
