Honey is the upcoming eleventh studio album by Canadian musician Dan Snaith, set to be released under the moniker Caribou on October 4, 2024, through Merge Records and City Slang. It marks his sixth album as Caribou, and his first in nearly five years, following Suddenly (2020).
Background and singles
[edit]Following the release of Suddenly in 2020, Snaith released the one-off single "You Can Do It" in 2021 and returned to his dance alter ego Daphni the year after.[1] After two years of absence, Snaith released the lead single "Honey" on April 8, 2024, a song he had previously teased in 2023.[2] The eponymous lead single was followed up by the release of the songs "Broke My Heart" on June 2[3] and "Volume", a remake of "Pump Up the Volume" (1987) on July 31.[4]
Snaith announced the album on August 28 alongside the release of the fourth single "Come Find Me".[5] In a statement, the musician referred to the making of the record as "the same as ever", still getting "that thrill" when "something hits really hard" with emphasis put on what he "can make out of sound" on his own in his "little basement studio".[6] His goal was to pull "himself away" from music that speaks to only one specific person but is instead "available to everybody", thus wanting to create "huge dancefloor tracks".[7]
