Modest Mouse drops new single, 2021 national and ’22 international tour dates

Modest Mouse is back with new music and tour dates.

The indie rock band released the song “Leave a Light On” on Monday.

“Leave a Light On” appears on Modest Mouse’s forthcoming seventh studio album, The Golden Casket.

The album also features the single “We Are Inbetween,” released earlier this month.

Modest Mouse will release The Golden Casket on June 25. The album is the band’s first since Strangers to Ourselves, released in March 2015.

Modest Mouse will promote the album on a new tour. The band will perform July 29-Aug. 1 at Lollapalooza Music Festival and kick off the tour July 30 in Madison, Wisc. Indie rock band Future Islands will join MM in late September in Colorado and into early October for a total of seemingly five dates.
