British duo Field Music (brothers Peter and David Brewis) have announced a new album, shared its first single, and announced some U.S. tour dates. Commontime is due out February 5, 2016 via Memphis Industries. Below you can listen to its first single, “The Noisy Days Are Over.” Below that are the band’s first U.S. tour dates in five years.

“The Noisy Days Are Over” is fun sax-filled song about two friends growing up and leaving behind their hard drinking days to “get to bed like everyone else.” Commontime also features, as a press release states, “original Field Music keyboardist Andrew Moore, Peter’s wife Jennie Brewis and new member of the live band Liz Corney on vocals, plus a panoply of other players.”

“We wanted to embrace being a duo and, perversely, that made us feel more comfortable about all of those conspicuous cameos,” said David Brewis in the press release.

Below is “The Noisy Days Are Over,” followed by the album’s tracklist and the band’s tour dates.
