Additional headlining shows added to the NoL summer tour in Leipzig, Ventura, Asheville, Nashville, Millersville & Baltimore 🙌
Pre-Sale will begin on Wednesday for the newly added dates. If you head to our site now you can sign up to be notified as soon as the pre-sale ticket allocations go live.
Many thanks to everyone who already purchased their tickets. A number of shows from the initial announce are getting close to selling out. Looking like we’re going to have some extremely special nights on our hands with so many of your beautiful faces! 🙏
Good news: We’ve made another album! Our 4th, if you can believe it.
Bad news: It’s mostly about loss and death and working through some really dark shit.
Nevertheless, the folks at SubPop gave it a listen and agreed to help put it out, assuring us it’s the best record about dark shit they’ve heard in ages. We know they know what they’re talking about 🤝
The album is titled Dance Called Memory and will be coming out on September 19th. Produced & mixed by Nick Millhiser, mastered by @heba_kadry NYC.
A limited edition Deep Blue vinyl version of the LP is available for pre-order now exclusively via our webstore, alongside the CD & new NoL apparel designs (pictured above)
If shipping is prohibitive from our site, there’s a myriad of other options: Rough Trade, SubPop & a few others have versions of the record which we’ll try to link to from our store page. When in doubt, your local record store can always use the support 💙
Many thanks to all who helped us get to this moment. It’s a gift to even be here.
We’re told all three of the August residency London shows @ Village Underground are now within a hair of selling out! As such we’re revealing the special guests a bit earlier than usual so that any superfans of each opening act has a chance to scoop up the last few remaining tickets and enjoy a double feature. We’ve been able to open up a few more tickets for the previously sold out date on the 20th as well, so if you had joined the waitlist you should receive a message with ticket info for that show today.
Without further ado, beyond humbled that we’ll get to share the stage with these incredible musicians…
18th Aug - Lael Neale
19th Aug - Friko
20th Aug - Miss Grit
As with the past NoL residencies please do be prepared for a unique experience, set list, etc. each night. We go a bit deeper into both our catalog and the larger musical canon for these in an effort try to make them a more expanded experience than we’re sometimes able to make happen when we’re only rolling through town for a night on a tour. Feel free to drop in the comments though if there’s a particular song you really want on any particular night and we’ll see if an elaborate spreadsheet can help us accommodate them all.
After these 🎟️’s are gone that’ll be it for NoL in London for 2026! Can’t wait to share these extra special nights with everyone who has made plans to come out 🤝
Little snippets of our trip to Mexico 🇲🇽 Yall made us feel so incredibly welcome, we had some of the best shows down there. Not to mention our fair share of incredible food and mezcal. Nos vemos 🤝
Tokyo 🌸🌸🌸 Chose this song because we spent one night at a vinyl listening bar where the proprietor blasted a lot of Yngwie. Drinking shochu to this song in a smoky basement bar is one of the memories I won’t soon forget 😌 NOL❤️🇯🇵
TOUGHER THAN THE REST / THE CONVERSATION - the eighth installment of our ongoing 7” series
Our take on a Bruce Springsteen classic produced by Nick Millhiser, mastered by Heba Kadry & limited to 1,000 total pieces pressed. To reserve a copy head either to our website or the @subpop online store. We expect pre-orders will ship out to purchasers ~6 weeks from now towards the end of May / top of June.
The A-side can be heard now wherever you like to consume your audio whereas the B-side (a song from the Dance Called Memory sessions that we couldn’t quite squeeze on the album) you’ll have to wait until your copy arrives in the mail.
Many thanks to everyone who has snatched up the previous installments so quickly and helped us get to #8 in the series! We’ll try to keep it going until you tell us to stop… 🙏

Thank you for the opportunity to capture you all - and it was a pleasure seeing you play that night. Until next time.
