A North American tour is happening in September.
Alabama Shakes have returned with 'Another Life', their first new music in over a decade, released via Island EMI.
Recorded at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville, the track was produced by Alabama Shakes with long-time collaborator Shawn Everett. The band reunited for a surprise show at the Bama Theatre in Tuscaloosa, AL on 18th December 2024, before heading into the studio, with those sessions yielding 'Another Life' and more.
The group have also joined Island Records this year, with further music to follow. A North American tour is scheduled for September, with full dates below.
Brittany Howard: “When I wrote Another Life, I was thinking about all the lives we carry. The ones we're living right now, the ones that slipped away because of different choices, the what ifs, the what wasn't meant to be, the goodbyes, and the chance encounters that feel divine.
“This song is about those threads and how they stretch across time and space, connecting every version of who we are. It's about letting them come together, letting them harmonize, and realizing that goodbye isn't really goodbye. It's more like I’ll see you later. A collective story that never stops unfolding. I'm glad we opened this door into this reality of us making music together again.”
