"I'm thrilled that we've opened this door to the reality of creating music together once more.”

In their first music release in ten years, American rock band Alabama Shakes presents their new single ‘Another Life.’
This marks their debut release with Island Records, with ‘Another Life’ recorded at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville and produced by Alabama Shakes alongside longtime collaborator Shawn Everett.
A tribute to old friendships and romantic ties, the conclusion and emergence of new relationships, frontwoman Brittany Howard exhibits her emotions through a captivating vocal performance set against a backdrop of mellow southern rock production.
Regarding the song, Brittany Howard said: “When I wrote Another Life, I was reflecting on all the different lives we carry. The ones we’re living now, those that faded away due to various choices, the what-ifs, the things that weren’t meant to happen, the farewells, and the serendipitous meetings that seem magical.
“This song explores those connections and how they stretch over time and space, linking every version of ourselves. It’s about allowing them to come together, to harmonize, and understanding that goodbye isn't truly goodbye. It's more like I'll see you later. A shared narrative that continues to unfold. I’m grateful we’ve opened this door to this reality of making music together again.”
‘Another Life’ is Alabama Shakes’ first original track since their 2015 album ‘Sound & Color,' which won four Grammy Awards including Best Alternative Music Album and Best Rock Song for ‘Don’t Wanna Fight.’
Stay tuned for more music from Alabama Shakes.
