Big Thief Announce New Album, ‘Double Infinity'
More than three years on from their last studio record, New York trio Big Thief have detailed their sixth album, Double Infinity. Set for release on Sept. 5 via 4AD, Double Infinity serves as the follow-up to the band's Grammy-nominated album, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You. Recorded at New York City's Power Station over the winter with longtime collaborator Dom Monks, the nine-track release arrived as the result of three weeks of marathon nine-hour sessions spent working with a tight-knit community of musicians.

The new record is also the first to be released by Big Thief as a trio, having announced the departure of longtime bassist Max Oleartchik in July 2024, citing 'interpersonal reasons' for his exit. Double Infinity's impending release is also the latest in a series of happenings for Big Thief and its associated members this year. In February, Big Thief unveiled a new L.A. wildfires benefit EP, with Passional Relations collecting some of their 'favorite unreleased songs' to aid relief for those impacted by the fires in Los Angeles. In late April, Lenker would release the Live at Revolution Hall album, while drummer James Krivchenia released the record Performing Belief in early May. Days later, the group would announce a run of North American tour dates, with the Somersault Slide 360 Tour set to launch in September. Big Thief first formed in 2015 following two years of Lenker and guitarist Buck Meek performing as a duo. Their debut album arrived in 2016, with their third album – 2019's U.F.O.F. – peaking at No. 142 on the Billboard 200. Their latest album, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You, would reach No. 31, and receive a Grammy nomination for best alternative album, and best alternative music performance for second single, 'Certainty.'

Big Thief Announce New Album Double Infinity, Due 5 September
Big Thief will release their sixth studio album, Double Infinity, on 5 September 2025. Today, Adrianne Lenker, Buck Meek and James Krivchenia share album opener, ' Incomprehensible '. Double Infinity is the follow-up to 2022's Grammy-nominated album, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You, recorded last winter at the Power Station, New York City. For three solid weeks, the trio would ride bicycles on frozen streets between Brooklyn and Manhattan, meeting in Power's Station's warm wood-panelled room. Together with a community of musicians (Alena Spanger, Caleb Michel, Hannah Cohen, Jon Nellen, Joshua Crumbly, June McDoom, Laraaji, Mikel Patrick Avery, Mikey Buishas) they would play for nine hours a day, tracking together – simultaneously – improvising arrangements and making collective discoveries. Double Infinity was produced, engineered and mixed by longtime Big Thief collaborator Dom Monks. 'How can beauty that is living be anything but true?' Adrianne asks as she drives nose against the future with childhood mementos on 'Incomprehensible'. She understands, 'everything I see from now on will be something new.' The silver hairs on her shoulders are new as well. Yet fear of aging is cracked by proof. If a life is shaped by living, 'Let gravity be my sculptor, let the wind do my hair.' Being born, then staying a while, remains the greatest mystery. Adrianne claims her place and time. 'Incomprehensible, let me be.' Double Infinity will be released digitally and on cassette, CD, and standard black vinyl. Limited green and 'Sparkle' vinyl editions will be available via indie retailers and Big Thief/4AD webstores respectively. For pre-order information, head here.
