Big Thief share "Forgotten Eyes," holding album listening parties
Big Thief‘s second album of 2019, Two Hands, comes out next week (10/11) via 4AD, and today they shared its second and final pre-release single, “Forgotten Eyes.” While U.F.O.F. was Big Thief’s most meditative album yet, lead Two Hands single “Not” and now “Forgotten Eyes” show off a louder rock side of the band that’s more in line with their stunning live show. It’s another great song from this band who seems to do no wrong — listen below.
There will also be listening parties for the album on Tuesday (10/8) at record stories worldwide, including one at Rough Trade NYC. Full list below and more details at 4AD’s website.
The band’s tour also starts next week, beginning with three sold-out NYC shows. All dates are listed below.
