Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum selling rock band KINGS OF LEON have officially announced the release of their highly anticipated eighth studio album When You See Yourself coming March 5, 2021, on RCA Records. Lead single, “The Bandit” is available now with an accompanying music video that sets the sonic and visual tone for the album. The band has also made a second track, “100,000 People” available as well.
Recorded at Nashville’s famed Blackbird Studios and produced by Grammy Award-winning Markus Dravs (Arcade Fire, Coldplay, Florence + the Machine) the album propels Kings of Leon into 2021 with a modern evolution of their sound.
The album, which comes four years after their first-ever number one U.S. album debut, Walls, has been teased in various formats over the past few weeks. The band even began announcing the album directly through their fans with a special t-shirt mailer revealing album tracks and lyrics, using the moment to raise awareness and money for Live Nation’s Crew Nation relief fund for live music crews.
