Sleater-Kinney announce new album ‘Path of Wellness,’ share new song “Worry With You”

Sleater-Kinney are set to follow 2019’s The Center Won’t Hold with their tenth album, Path of Wellness, on June 11 via Mom + Pop (pre-order). According to the listing on Rough Trade’s website, the album “was recorded in Portland, Oregon during the summer of 2020 against a backdrop of social unrest, devastating wildfires, and a raging pandemic. It’s music for an imagined togetherness. This marks the first Sleater-Kinney album produced by the band members themselves.” It’s also their first album since the departure of longtime drummer Janet Weiss.

The first single is “Worry With You,” which finds the band kind of navigating the middle ground between the funkier vibe of The Center Won’t Hold and the more stripped-back rock sound of their classic records. It’s unmistakably Sleater-Kinney, and you can check it out for yourself by watching the Alberta Poon-directed video below.

The band’s tour with Wilco and NNAMDI is scheduled to hit NYC’s Forest Hills Stadium on August 21 (tickets). All dates are listed below.
