Having made their triumphant return with recent single ‘Modern Girl’, Bleachers are raising the bar with the next taste of their forthcoming self-titled album (out on Friday 8th March via Dirty Hit). New track ‘Alma Mater’ features guest vocals from none other than Lana Del Rey, whose latest album ‘Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd?’ was majority produced by Bleachers’ Jack Antonoff.

Full of warmth, melodic horns, and of course Lana’s honeyed harmonies, ‘Alma Mater’ serves as a neat microcosm of what to expect from the band’s fourth outing. The track’s accompanying video - unveiled today - is similarly dreamy, and sees Jack encounter Lana, Clairo, and other familiar characters as he drives through a city. Watch the Alex Lockett-directed visual here:

To mark the record’s release, Bleachers will also be hitting the road early next year for their ‘From The Studio To The Stage’ tour, which will see them return to the UK in March and then travel the US in the summer. Tickets for the US leg will go on general sale at 10:00am tomorrow (Friday 8th December); the UK shows are already all sold out.
