Hovvdy are back. The duo of Will Taylor and Charlie Martin have announced their new album, Big World, which drops on August 14 via Arts & Crafts. Its first offering, ‘Try Try Try’, is hazy but upbeat, arriving alongside a Michael Rees-directed video. Check it out and find the album cover and tracklist below.
The band worked on the record with longtime collaborator Ben Littlejohn. “The last record felt like such a generous offering: a double-album, deeply personal, you can literally hear me crying on some songs,” Martin said in a statement. “With this one, we wanted to take on the challenge of making something more concise and to the point, and give the fans something that feels like a shorter but more exciting ride.”
“When it comes to the music, there’s literally never questions between Charlie and me, only answers,” Taylor added. “We can always show up and not have to worry about the music, and that continues to amaze me.”
