This Is Lorelei, the project of the prolific New York artist Nate Amos, has signed to Matador Records. Alongside the signing, Amos announces a UK autumn tour culminating in a London show at Electric Brixton on November 26, as well as North American dates with Bleachers, @ and Colin Miller, plus appearances at Kilby Block Party, Newport Folk and Just Like Heaven Festivals.
This Is Lorelei recently released the Super Deluxe version of Box For Buddy, Box For Star, a compilation featuring fully reimagined versions of every song from his breakout LP that includes covers and collaborations from Hayley Williams and Daniel James (Power Snatch), Waxahatchee, MJ Lenderman, Jeff Tweedy and fantasy of a broken heart, Snail Mail, SASAMI, Momma, and more.
Amos was recently profiled by The New York Times, who called him “an indie-rock phenomenon” who makes “immaculately crafted bedroom-pop gems,” with Hayley Williams adding that “Nate feels like a classic American songwriter. I listen to his writing and think, ‘Man, I wish I could do that.’” Upon its initial release the album landed on year-end lists at Rolling Stone, Billboard, GQ, Pitchfork, Stereogum, The FADER, Paste, and more.
