Ooh La La is the upcoming ninth studio album by Guster. It is preceded by the singles "Keep Going" and "All Day," and will be released on May 17, 2024. It was mainly produced by Josh Kaufman, who had previously produced albums for The National and the Hold Steady.[1] It is their first album since 2019's Look Alive, which was released over five years prior.[3]
Recording edit
According to frontman Ryan Miller, “Most of these songs were written against the backdrop of what felt like an apocalypse. It was such a transformative time, and we were dealing with a lot of existential questions about what it means to be a father, a husband, a creative person in the midst of all the chaos." Guitarist Adam Gardner stated that “One thing we’ve continually done as a band is acknowledge what’s going on in our world but still bring some positivity to the music. We’re always going to be real about what’s happening, but we still want to leave people with a feeling of hope.” According to Exclaim! magazine, the album "marks a bold departure from its predecessor, 2019's Look Alive, through a bedrock of rich acoustic guitar and lush piano."[1]
Release edit
The album is preceded by two singles, "All Day" and Keep Going," which Exclaim! called "a big, organic-sounding slice of inspira-rock." Both songs were released on February 28, 2024.[4]
On March 30, Guster sold pre-release CD copies of the album at the Boston date of their We Also Have Eras Tour at MGM Music Hall.[5]
