Sylvan Esso, the duo of Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn, have announced the release of a new studio album, No Rules Sandy, which will be out on August 12 via Loma Vista. They have also shared a video for a new album single, “Didn’t Care.” View the Public Library-directed video below, along with the album’s tracklist and cover art.

In a press release, Meath states that the new album “feels like who we actually are. It just feels like us. We’re not trying to fit into the mold, just happily being our freak selves.”

Sanborn adds: “I think that the ultimate effect of our last record and the pandemic has been the feeling of like, ‘Fuck that, I know what I want. And it’s now, or never. So let’s get out there and do it.”

No Rules Sandy was written and produced by Sylvan Esso, and features musical contributions from TJ Maiani, Gabriel Kahane, and Sam Gendel.

Sylvan Esso’s previous album, Free Love, came out in 2020 via Loma Vista.

The A’s, a new duo consisting of Meath and Daughter of Swords’ Alexandra Sauser-Monnig, released their debut album, Fruit, earlier this month via Psychic Hotline.
