THAO has slowly been making her return. After putting Thao & The Get Down Stay Down to rest in 2021, she released the song "Ambition" the following year under the name THAO, followed by "Fossils" just last month. Now, she's announcing a new album called Show Me, co-produced with Merrill Garbus and Nate Brenner of Tune-Yards.

The news comes with a new single called "Sick Of The Times" featuring Tune-Yards and the Linda Lindas. "I wanted it to be an anthem that will be used at political rallies, grass roots organizing and mutual aid events, anything that can help us emotionally prepare to activate and to stay politically engaged at all levels, but especially at the local level," Thao explains. "We need to keep each other buoyant, to remind ourselves we've got the numbers and the imperative."

Show Me has other exciting guests, too: Neko Case and Adrian Quesada of Black Pumas. "This album is a real-time record-keeping of my life evolving into a different relationship with love and desire over the last few years," she adds. "For example, I came out publicly years ago but I've never really written a song about sex or queer identity. So, that's in there." She's also announcing a handful of fall US tour dates, with $1 from each ticket going to Working Families Power.

Below, check out the tour dates and the extremely fun Linda Mai Green-directed music video for the highly infectious "Sick Of The Times."
