Mates of State Re-Arrange with new album

Having a baby doesn’t mean you have to put your career on hold. In fact, if you are Mates of State, kids just add to the fun. The married organ and drum duo has had its hands full raising a newborn and a toddler, as well as completing a new record, Re-Arrange Us.

Set for release on May 20, the LP will mark the indie-pop group's fifth studio album. There are no tour dates scheduled in support of the release as of yet, but the California-based band is known for its eager beaver touring schedule, and will no doubt be announcing some shows in the near future. In the meantime, you can check out and episode the Mates recorded for NPR's This American Life, What I Learned From Television, which came out around this time last year.
