Since I interviewed the band earlier in the year (see elsewhere on this blog), I'm very interested in hearing the new material...Hollywood Records
Almost Monday announce their new single and video “delicate,” out now, alongside their upcoming headline tour. Tickets went on sale today; purchase HERE.
“Delicate” offers another look into the band’s forthcoming sophomore album THANK GOD IT’S ALMOST MONDAY, arriving September 9. Building on previous singles “skinny dip” and “no more regrets” the track leans into a more defined sense of storytelling and perspective while maintaining the band’s signature energy.
“In a lot of ways, the song is an elevator pitch for a short story,” the band shares. “We’ve always been so inspired by filmmakers and world builders. So ‘delicate’ is a tongue-in-cheek, wink-at-the-camera-esque journey of a guy who wakes up feeling overly confident, only to discover just how fragile his ego truly is.”
The official video, directed by Sean Schmitt, was captured on the road and features tour footage from across multiple cities and locations, offering a behind-the-scenes look at life on tour while visually reinforcing the song’s themes.
Alongside the release, almost monday have announced a new run of headline dates across the U.S. and Canada, set to follow their current tour with Young the Giant and Cold War Kids. The upcoming headline run places the band at the top of the marquee across markets, following previously sold-out headline tours in the U.S., UK, and Europe.
“‘THANK GOD IT’S ALMOST MONDAY’ is our second studio album. We made this during the best and worst year of our lives. It’s the result of an honest life lived; the highs, the lows, the pain, and the joys are all there on this record,” the band shares.
Written after a period of constant touring and life on the road, the album reflects what the band describes as both the best and hardest year of their lives, balancing career highs with more personal challenges. The record pulls from those experiences, with themes of growth, distance, and self-reflection surfacing naturally over time.
The album’s visual identity mirrors this shift in perspective, reflecting the tension between intimacy and expansiveness, and between where you’ve been and where you’re headed. Single artwork focuses on macro, close-up imagery that highlights small, easily overlooked details, reinforcing the idea that seemingly minor moments can hold greater meaning. In contrast, the album cover pulls back into a wider frame, placing subjects within a more expansive landscape. Together, the visuals underscore the balance between intimate, day-to-day experiences and the broader sense of growth and possibility that defines the album.
Onstage, almost monday has appeared at major festivals including Lollapalooza, BottleRock, Life is Beautiful, as well as iHeartRadio’s 98.7 ALTer EGO. They’ve opened arenas for AJR, toured globally with The Driver Era and The Band CAMINO, sold-out their own headline tour across the U.S., UK, and Europe and were nominated for Best New Alternative Artist at the 2026 iHeart Music Awards. In 2024 they released their debut album DIVE.
To date, the trio has over 1.5B streams, a late-night TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, collaborations including Sofi Tukker on “broken people,” Jordana on “jupiter” and work with producers behind OneRepublic and The Killers.
