Indie rock band Grouplove give us a taste of their new album ahead of its release

Los Angeles — Canvasback Music/Atlantic recording artists Grouplove will release their highly anticipated third studio album, Big Mess, on 9 September.

The first single, Welcome To Your Life, will be released on 15 July.

Watch a preview of songs off the new album here:

Recorded in Los Angeles and Seattle with producers Captain Cuts (Grouplove’s own Ryan Rabin) and Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Band of Horses, The Shins), Big Mess features the signature anthemic choruses and infectious hooks that first brought the Los Angeles quintet to prominence through hits like Tongue Tied, Colours, and Ways To Go.

No stranger to the worldwide festival circuit, Grouplove has made an album that brilliantly showcases their richly narrated songs with elaborate production.

"We made this album at an important crossroads in our lives, and it was a dream come true to be able to work with Phil Ek up in Seattle and with Ryan down in LA. We’re extremely excited for the world to hear it!” said singer/guitarist Christian Zucconi.

This fall, Grouplove will hit the road for their Big Mess World Tour. One dollar for every ticket sold will be donated to the organization Charity: Water to help fund water projects like drilled wells, spring protections, and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.
