Aldous Harding will release a new album, Train on the Island, on May 8 via 4AD. The New Zealander reunited with producer John Parish for the Warm Chris follow-up. In the Michelle Henning-directed video for new song “One Stop,” Harding performs abstract dance in a giant metal tub. Watch that below, and scroll down for the tracklist and album art.
Alongside Harding and Parrish, Train on the Island features pedal steel player Joe Harvey-Whyte, harpist Mali Llewelyn, synth artist Thomas Poli, Polar Bear drummer Sebastian Rochford, and, on bass, vocals, guitar, and organ, H. Hawkline’s Huw Evans. Harding recently announced a tour of North America and Europe, to which additional dates in London and California have been added.
