It’s only been a little over a year since Dirty Projectors returned with their acclaimed self-titled album, but the Brooklyn-bred indie rockers are already back again. Today, the band has announced they are dropping a brand new record this Summer. Titled Lamp Lit Prose, the latest from Dirty Projectors is scheduled to drop on July 13. The new album features contributions from some of the buzziest names in music today, including Syd, Robin Pecknold from Fleet Foxes, Haim, and Rostam to name a few.
To give their fans a taste of what they can expect from their latest project, today the band has also pulled the curtain off that album’s lead single, a funky, off-kilter tracks titled “Break-Thru.”
You can check out the band’s first single “Break-Thru” in the video above and their full run of North American tour dates below.
