Written by Model/Actriz has a new EP out. Titled Swan Songs, it arrives less than a year after the release of the New York band’s 2025 album, Pirouette. The three-track record includes the somber “Thank You By Dido” bookended by two propulsive, industrial-inspired tracks, “Glassman” and “Majesty.” Listen to the record below.
In a press statement, frontman Cole Haden explains, “Swan Songs is a capsule of experiments made in the aftermath of the Pirouette sessions that by chance formed this moody vignette that we’re happy to share.”
The group has also announced a 2026 tour, which kicks off in North Carolina this Wednesday, March 25th. Model/Actriz will continue to make stops across North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom, closing out September 6th in Edinburgh. Scroll down to see all the dates.
