WHY? fans, this one’s for you! The band, led by Cincinnati’s Yoni Wolf, has announced their eighth album, ‘The Well I Fell Into,’ coming out August 2nd, 2024. Along with the album news, they’ve released the first single, ‘The Letters, Etc.‘—and it’s a must-listen.
Wolf shared some insights about the new track, explaining that it took a couple of years and some life experiences to finish. “Though potentially filled with paranoid conjecture, it is also a song of acceptance,” he says. “Love and let live.”
‘The Well I Fell Into‘ delves into heartbreak and healing, capturing Wolf at his most poignant. It was self-released on Wolf’s new label, Waterlines and recorded with Brian Joseph (Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver) at Hive Studio. The new album features collaborations with artists like Gia Margaret and Serengeti.
‘The Well I Fell Into’ may be born from heartache, but it’s ultimately hopeful. It offers a clear-eyed look at the past and a path forward. Don’t miss this new chapter from WHY?
