Fleet Foxes have released the third song from their highly anticipated new album Crack-Up, titled “If You Need To, Keep Time on Me.” The album will stream in its entirety via NPR First Listen beginning tomorrow, June 8, and become widely available via Nonesuch Records on Friday, June 16. Fleet Foxes will perform on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Friday, June 16 and on CBS This Morning Saturday, June 17.

Fleet Foxes previously released two tracks off of Crack-Up, both to critical praise. The first, “Third of May / Ōdaigahara”, is a nearly nine-minute epic powered by piano and electric twelve-string guitar, string quartet, and the group’s trademark sparkling harmonies. The second is “Fool’s Errand”, featuring an eerie and beautiful music video directed by Sean Pecknold, with art direction by Adi Goodrich and produced by Society.

Fleet Foxes recently kicked off a massive international tour with a series of intimate shows in the Pacific Northwest. The band was warmly welcomed back to the stage by what Seattle Weekly described as “a rapt, adoring crowd.” The Seattle Times noted of their return, “It’s almost unheard of for a band to disappear for this long, and then come back as big as ever.” The following week the band opened this year’s Vivid Live festival with four sold out nights at the Sydney Opera House, described by The Australian as “a spellbinding display of Fleet Foxes’ originality and vocal and instrumental dexterity.” All dates are listed below.
