Fleet Foxes are releasing a new album, Crack-Up, on June 16 via Nonesuch. Previously they had shared the album’s first single, the near nine-minute long “Third of May / Ōdaigahara,” a trailer that featured snippets of various songs from the album, and another Crack-Up song, “Fool’s Errand,” as well as a video for “Fool’s Errand.” Now they have shared another song from the album, the relatively short but sweet “If You Need To, Keep Time on Me.” Listen below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Crack-Up will stream in its entirety tomorrow on NPR First Listen. The band will perform on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Friday, June 16 and CBS This Morning on Saturday, June 17.

Crack-Up is the band’s third album, the long-awaited follow-up to 2011’s Helplessness Blues. Frontman Robin Pecknold wrote all of the album’s 11 songs and co-produced it with his bandmate (and childhood friend) Skyler Skjelset. The album was recorded from July 2016 to January 2017 at various studios around America: Electric Lady Studios, Sear Sound, The Void, Rare Book Room, Avast, and The Unknown. Phil Ek mixed the album at Sear Sound and Greg Calbi mastered it at Sterling Sound. Josh Tillman was in the band in the Helplessness Blues era but had long since left to focus on his Father John Misty project. The current Fleet Foxes lineup is Robin Pecknold (vocals, multi-instrumentalist), Skyler Skjelset (multi-instrumentalist, vocals), Casey Wescott (multi-instrumentalist, vocals), Christian Wargo (multi-instrumentalist, vocals), and Morgan Henderson (multi-instrumentalist).
