“Whitney’s melodies should be packaged and sold on sunny days.” - The FADER

Watch the music video for Valleys (My Love) below:

Whitney, the Chicago-based band led by vocalist/drummer Julien Ehrlich and guitarist Max Kakacek, presents a new single/video “Valleys (My Love),” from their forthcoming album, Forever Turned Around, out August 30th via Secretly Canadian. Following the lead single “Giving Up,” “Valleys (My Love)” describes the anxiety of being away from a loved one, and was inspired by a particularly scenic drive in Montana. The accompanying video by Kamp Grizzly, directed by Nick Woytuk and shot in Portland, Oregon, documents the life of a commercial truck driver, and illustrates the connection between traveling for work and the band’s own personal experiences.

Forever Turned Around is an album about partnership — romantic, familial and communal, but most importantly a love in friendship: the bonds between two best friends and creative partners and the joy and stress that comes with it. The album was co-produced by Brad Cook (Bon Iver, Hand Habits) andJonathan Rado (Weyes Blood, Father John Misty), who produced their much-beloved debut, 2016’sLight Upon The Lake, and features Chicago musicians Lia Kohl and OHMME’s Macie Stewart.

Whitney will appear at Chicago’s Pitchfork Music Festival in July before embarking on a lengthy European and North American tour. The live band is comprised of Ehrlich and Kakacek, plus keyboardist Malcolm Brown, guitarist Print Chouteau, bassist Josiah Marshall, trumpeter Will Miller, and Ziyad Asrar who makes his return to the group on this upcoming tour.
