King Krule announces long-awaited fourth album, shares new single

Space Heavy lands on June 9th.

British singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Archy Marshall has announced the release of a new album as King Krule.

Marking the praised musician’s fourth album to release under the beloved and influential moniker, Space Heavy is noted to have been written over a two year period beginning in 2020 during stays between London and Marshall’s newly adopted home of Liverpool.

A press release states “the opus proposes a reflection on the notion of “space between”, a space inhabited by dreams of love and marked by stories of lost connection.”

The forthcoming album’s announcement succeeds recent live performances in Amsterdam, Paris, London and New York wherein Marshall debuted new and unreleased material through a stripped back configuration.
