Kieran Hebden and William Tyler Announce New Album, Share Song: Listen

Kieran Hebden & William Tyler

Four Tet’s Kieran Hebden and Nashville guitarist William Tyler have announced a new collaborative album. Out September 19 via Temporary Residence Ltd., the seven-track 41 Longfield Street Late ‘80s is led by an 11-minute cover of Lyle Lovett’s “If I Had a Boat.” Listen to it below.

Both Hebden and Tyler shared statements about the album. In his, Hebden wrote: “We discussed references for an album and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Fennesz, and AM oldies radio stations came up. But the main influence was found when we discovered a shared deep connection to ’80s American country and folk music.”

“I think we both in our own specific ways want to recontextualize a lot of music that we grew up with, regardless of the genre, and I think that’s what this album reflects. It’s a lot of nostalgia, but it’s also very forward focused.” Tyler added. “I don’t even know what genre I’m supposed to be in at this point, but I trust Kieran, and I love what we’ve done together. He’s become a dear friend, and I can’t wait to see what’s ahead for us.”

Hebden and Tyler previously collaborated, in 2023, on “Darkness, Darkness” and “No Services.” As Four Tet, Hebden most recently released the album Three.
