Dan Snaith has released a fair amount of music in the last five years, but most of it has been under his Daphni moniker. He hasn’t actually released anything under the Caribou name since the project’s 2014 album Our Love. But now he’s back with a new Caribou song, “Home,” and Snaith has also announced some new Caribou tour dates for 2020. Check out the song, its cover art, and the tour dates below.

Snaith had this to say about the song in a press release: “I’m always listening to lots of music and sometimes a loop just jumps out at me - it’s too perfect. That’s how it was with Gloria Barnes’ ‘Home’ - I kept returning to it, meaning to do something with it but not knowing what. Sometimes making music feels like a process I’m in charge of ... but there are other times when things just present themselves and my job is to follow their lead. It wasn’t until the circumstances of someone close to me mirrored the refrain of the original song that the track all came together.

“When I’ve played it to friends, several of them have said that they feel like it’s speaking to their circumstances, about people close to them. We’ve all had moments when something changes suddenly and catalyses a change in your whole life - when you need to go back to something familiar, pick up the pieces and start again.”
