Yeasayer Unveil “Ecstatic Baby” From Erotic Reruns Out June 7
25-Date U.S. Tour Starts June 12, Includes Webster Hall In NYC + Teragram Ballroom In LALISTEN HERE: https://soundcloud.com/yeasayer/ecstatic-baby/s-xoPBK
Yeasayer has released a new song, “Ecstatic Baby,” from their forthcoming album Erotic Reruns out June 7 (Yeasayer Records). Listen here: https://soundcloud.com/yeasayer/ecstatic-baby/s-xoPBK
Erotic Reruns distills a decade of twisted, paranoid pop into the Brooklyn band’s most direct, cut-to-the-bone album yet. Over 9 crisp and compact new songs, Yeasayer balance a sardonic and chilling reaction to dark times with moments of warmth and self-reflection.
A 25-date summer tour will follow album release in June and July, concluding with a hometown headlining show at the newly re-opened Webster Hall in NYC on July 13. See below for full tour itinerary.
Last month the band released 3 new songs with the announcement of the new album: “Let Me Listen In On You,” “Fluttering In The Floodlights,” and an animated video for “I’ll Kiss You Tonight.” The singles are getting airplay across the U.S. and overseas, ranging from multiple spins a day on Sirius XMU to key radio stations like WFUV and KEXP, to BBC1 and BBC6 in the U.K. “Let Me Listen In On You” also landed on a recent NY Times Playlist, coverage from Rolling Stone and more.

Erotic Reruns was written and produced by singer/multi-instrumentalist Chris Keating, singer/multi-instrumentalist Anand Wilder, and bassist/singer Ira Wolf Tuton. It marks a return to the band’s origins: the core trio of Yeasayer taking complete artistic control and making this album in the studios each of them have built in their homes in Brooklyn and upstate New York.
Since their debut, Yeasayer has appeared on the cover of the Fader and performed on CONAN and Fallon. They’ve performed at a number of major festivals including multiple appearances at Coachella and Lollapalooza, plus Glastonbury, Fujirock and more. Yeasayer’s songs have also been featured in numerous films, television shows, and video games. Erotic Reruns will be the influential band’s fifth studio album (not including two live albums from 2011 and 2013), following 2016’s Amen & Goodbye.
