“Sweater” comes before an extensive stint of touring for black midi, which includes a sweeping European tour, a handful of Latin American tour dates and a few festival lineups, including Coachella, Governor’s Ball and Primavera Sound.
Listen to the entrancing single below, which periodically wavers between a slow, melodic meditation and a cacophonous burst of energetic playing. Then check out upcoming black midi tour dates. We named the band 2019’s best new artist.
