Almost Monday Delivering New Single 'Delicate' This Week
(The Oriel Company) almost monday announce their new single and video "delicate," out Friday, June 26, alongside their upcoming headline tour, THANK GOD IT'S ALMOST MONDAY, announced today. Tickets go on sale Friday, June 26 at 10 AM local time.
"delicate" offers another look into the band's forthcoming sophomore album THANK GOD IT'S ALMOST MONDAY, arriving September 9. Building on the momentum of previous singles "skinny dip" and "no more regrets" the track leans into a more defined sense of storytelling and perspective while maintaining the band's signature energy. Driven by an upbeat, danceable rhythm and bright, kinetic production, "delicate" pairs its immediate, feel-good momentum with self-aware lyricism, capturing the tension between outward confidence and underlying vulnerability, reflected in lines like "Take a drink, pretend that I'm relevant / Try to love it but I hate it / And I just, and I just can't fake it I'm, delicate."'
"In a lot of ways, the song is an elevator pitch for a short story," the band shares. "We've always been so inspired by filmmakers and world builders. So 'delicate' is a tongue-in-cheek, wink-at-the-camera-esque journey of a guy who wakes up feeling overly confident, only to discover just how fragile his ego truly is."
The official video, directed by Sean Schmitt, was captured on the road and features tour footage from across multiple cities and locations, offering a behind-the-scenes look at life on tour while visually reinforcing the song's themes.
Alongside the release, almost monday have announced a new run of headline dates across the U.S. and Canada, set to follow their current tour with Young the Giant and Cold War Kids. The upcoming headline run places the band at the top of the marquee across markets, following previously sold-out headline tours in the U.S., UK, and Europe.
