Description
On June 23, 2023, Merge Records will release Every Day Like the Last: Collected Singles 20192023, a physical home for three new tracks and previously released music from Wye Oak, charting the past four years of the bands lives.
Jenn Wasner and Andy Stacks musical partnership bloomed in the uncertainty of that period, whenever they felt that Wye Oak had something to say. They shifted to quickly writing, recording, and releasing digital EPs and singles. To Stack, there is a thread running through what is seemingly chaos: Finding cheer in the doom of the world.
Every Day Like the Last does just that, reminding the listener of the new heights Wye Oak have reached since 2018s The Louder I Call, the Faster It Runs, while gazing into the unknown of whats ahead. The title of this collection acknowledges that duality, posing it like a question: every day like the day before it or every day like the last day on Earth?
Both meanings apply, Wasner says. There are no easy answers.
Wye Oak is Jenn Wasner (of Bon Iver, Flock of Dimes) and Andy Stack (of Helado Negro, Joyero).
Collection includes three brand new tracks: Every Day Like the Last, I Learned It From You, and Repeat (If You Remind Me).
Its Way With Me selected for Barack Obamas 2021 Summer Playlist.
Its Way With Me selected among Best Songs of 2021 by Jon Pareles for NY Times.
