Tancred (aka Jess Abbott), will release her latest album Nightstand on June 1st via Polyvinyl Record Co. in the US and Hand in Hive in the UK/Europe. But fans eager for another glimpse into the record before then can listen to the new single “Something Else,” out today on all DSPs. “Something Else” follows the “urgent and shimmering” (Stereogum) lead single “Reviews,” and most recently, the song “Queen of New York”, dubbed by The FADER as an “ode to one-night-stands.” Following a tour this spring in support of Julien Baker, Tancred is also excited to announce dates for a North American tour this fall with The Joy Formidable. Those shows kick off on the west coast in October before heading east into the month of November. All upcoming shows are listed below.
“‘Reviews’ feels urgent and shimmering, as Abbott attempts to undergo personal transformations in an effort to stave off the hurt of a loss.” - Stereogum
"Abbott has polished her songwriting into a resplendent pop shine." - NPR Music
Produced by Lewis Pesacov (Best Coast, Generationals), Nightstand is the follow up to the Maine based musician’s well received 2016 release Out of The Garden. That album was deemed “violently catchy” by The FADER and won praise from Stereogum, Rookie, USA Today, and many others, while leading to tours with the likes of Speedy Ortiz and Weaves.
With Nightstand Abbott picks up where Out of The Garden left off, pairing upbeat melodies with her often somber lyrics about the experience of being a woman and being queer in today’s society. But in contrast with past albums, the songs for Nightstand were mostly finished before she entered the studio. As a result, The focus was less on finishing songs and more on perfecting them. Working with Pesacov offered new approaches – and gear – previously undiscovered by Abbott, affording her avenues of exploration that dialed in the production and tone on each and every song. “My favorite part of each day was sitting down to decide which guitar we needed to use for the song we were recording,” recalls Abbott. “It sounds so simple and I know most records are made this way, but it was my first time actually being able to do that and I loved it.”
The positive effects of this nourishing environment are evident throughout Nightstand, as on propulsive first single “Reviews,” showcasing Abbott’s strong melodic sensibilities balanced with purposeful, well-placed instrumentation. Or “Queen of New York,” which captures the feelings of fleeting lust set against a metropolitan backdrop, all within an effervescent three-minute bop.
With Nightstand, Abbott seeks to tell her story in a way that would both connects with the past and resonates in the future. “I wanted the album to have a timeless feel to it, so you could hear my stories of love and loneliness and sense that these are themes that have existed for everyone forever,” she says. She is quick to emphasize that there is still comfort to be found during times of isolation or alienation: “Ultimately, we are all feeling these things together, and that can be enough to feel less alone. There’s a hopefulness in the loneliness.”
