I Must Be Dreaming

Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.
Label: Island
Release Date: 28th August

First new Alabama Shakes in over a decade and the band feel fully refreshed off the back of 2 solo Brittany Howard which saw the frontwoman expand her sound to expansive psychedelic and experimental soul sounds. That new sonic palette is transferred over to 'I Must Be Dreaming', which provides a sweet spot between the immediate blues rock of The Shakes with the soulful kaleidoscope sounds of 'Jaime' and 'What Now'.

I Must Be Dreaming is the first new album from Alabama Shakes in more than a decade. The album expands on 2015’s album Sound & Color’s unfettered exploration, leaning toward a viscerally charged form of psychedelic soul.
 
Produced by Alabama Shakes and their repeat collaborator Shawn Everett, the album came to life at Nashville’s Sound Emporium Studios and Blackbird Studio. While the album sustains their signature intensity, its songs often wander into more lush and otherworldly terrain, revealing a more exacting command of atmosphere and space.
