Boyhood are back, and the news lands sweet: new album i'll dream instead drops October 23rd. It's a moment worth flagging.
Caitlin Pasko's project has always traded in that hushed, close-mic bedroom pop that made earlier work feel like a secret you stumbled into. Think back to the quiet gut-punch of her debut era, all whispered melodies and careful piano. This new record looks set to widen the frame.
The lead visual is a gem, shot, directed, and edited by Monika Kraska and Phil Osborne, a pairing that clearly gets the intimate world Boyhood builds. It fits the aesthetic like a glove.
An October release means we get a full autumn to sit with it, letting these tracks unfold slow. That feels right for music this tender.
Everything about the rollout points to an artist stepping into a bigger, bolder version of the sound. Consider us fully locked in.
Mark the calendar. October 23rd. This one's shaping up to be a stunner.
