Dirty Projectors

Dirty Projectors / Flight Tower EP / Domino


On June 26th, Dirty Projectors will release Flight Tower, the next in a sequence of five EPs that will come out in 2020. You read that right: March's Windows Open EP was not a one-off, but the opening feature of a pentahedron of new music the band began in 2019 and is now working to wrap. Each EP will feature a different band member on lead vocals — Maia, Felicia, Kristin & Dave — with everyone trading verses on the fifth and final installment.

On Flight Tower, Felicia is in the captain's chair. Each track is built around her mellifluous alto and empathetic eye, and Felicia and Dave wrote the lyrics together. Longstreth tills the other side of the screen, letting the sonic seeds planted on 2017's Dirty Projectors and 2018's Lamp Lit Prose blossom into something weird and new.
