On October 28th 2022, Canadian duo Junior Boys will release their sixth album, ‘Waiting Game’, on City Slang. Six years since their last album, 2016’s ‘Big Black Coat’. ‘Waiting Game’ finds producers Jeremy Greenspan and Matt Didemus in a tender and contemplative mood; a switch-up from their punchy, R&B-infused dance melodics. The album’s additonal musicians are Canadians, too; Caribou collaborator Colin Fisher performs saxophone throughout and Bonjay frontwoman Alanna Stuart sings alongside Greenspan on the song “Yes 2â€. In this, Junior Boys have made an album that reflects the quiet beauty of the world, so long as you’re prepared to truly listen. Junior Boys will embark on an extensive 20th anniversary headline tour in January and March 2023. “Junior Boys carry on their love affair with dance music and electronica [...]†-The Guardian “The power lies in Didemus and Greenspan‘s knack for effusive melody and acute dance floor know-how, a potent combination that remarkably never becomes formulaic.†-Resident Advisor A1: Must Be All the Wrong Things A2: Night Walk A3: It Never Occurred To Me A4: Thinking About You Calms Me Down A5: Yes II B1: Dum Audio B2: Fidget B3: Samba On Sama B4: Waiting Game
