Tune-Yards Reveal Upcoming Album 'Better Dreaming'

      05 · 03 · 2025

      

      Tune-Yards have unveiled their plans for a new album titled ‘Better Dreaming’.

      The duo, consisting of Merrill Garbus and Nate Brenner, has just revealed a series of headline performances on the East Coast of the United States, marking their first shows since 2022. Taking a moment to seek clarity in a tumultuous world, the upcoming album ‘Better Dreaming’ aims to establish a sense of tranquility.

      Scheduled for release on May 16th, ‘Better Dreaming’ is available for pre-order now and will be offered in standard vinyl, limited edition vinyl, and CD formats.

      The new single ‘Limelight’ is filled with brightness and energy, featuring three-year-old Merrill Garbus on backing vocals.

      Merrill Garbus shares a poignant insight…

      This track nearly didn't make it onto the album as it felt clichéd, especially in light of the numerous global genocides and their specific effects on children (the kids are not ‘alright’). However, it kept resurfacing as people, particularly our own child, responded positively to it.

      Who am I to discuss the notion of freedom, about all of us achieving freedom? Fannie Lou Hamer famously said, “Nobody’s free until everybody’s free,” and it feels both vulnerable and essential to view myself as part of that ‘everybody.’
