Crowded House / Gravity Stairs
The new studio album
Crowded House will release Gravity Stairs, their new studio album in May.
Produced by the band with Steven Schram, the 11-track long-player follows 2021’s Dreamers are Waiting and is the second with the current line-up of Neil Finn, Nick Seymour, Mitchell Froom and Neil’s sons Elroy and Liam Finn.
The title ‘Gravity Stairs’ was inspired by a heavy stone staircase near where Finn goes on holiday: “It’s a metaphor for getting a little older and becoming aware of your own mortality, your own physicality,” Finn explains. “Things are getting a little harder, and there’s more determination needed to get to the top, but there’s still the same compulsion to climb them.”
The album features the new single ‘Oh Hi’ and the cover art is, of course, a pastiche of The Beatles‘ Revolver. Signed prints come free with a well-priced CD+blue vinyl bundle on the band’s shop.
Gravity Stairs will be released on 31 May 2024, via BMG.
