Juanita Stein’s newly (29th November 2024) released fourth solo album “The Weightless Hour” was issued via Agricultural Audio. Having recently toured with Evan Dando and Travis as the support act, the Howling Bells frontwoman has just announced her UK headline tour for March 2025, which includes shows in England, Scotland and Wales.
“The Weightless Hour” sees Stein join forces once more with long-time collaborator, the producer Ben Hillier (Depeche Mode, Doves, Blur, Elbow). After originally teaming up for 2020’s “Snapshot”, Stein’s third record, which was built from collected fragments of grief following the loss of her father, it was Hillier’s penchant for minimalism – his instinct for risk-taking while stripping sounds back to their bones – that aligned with her vision for her fourth project.“I think making records is a really powerful way of letting go of experiences,” Stein notes. “I’m allowing myself to kiss things goodbye.” Through these converging chapters of her life, ‘The Weightless Hour’ feels like an arrival for Juanita Stein: “I’ve finally learned to be okay in space and be loud in my experiences.”
