The National announce new album 'I Am Easy To Find'

After releasing their critically-praised album 'Sleep Well Beast' back in 2017, The National have now returned to announce their plans for a new studio LP, arriving in the coming months.

Speaking about the high number of female guests on the record, frontman Matt Berninger. added, “Yes, there are a lot of women singing on this, but it wasn’t because, ‘Oh, let’s have more women’s voices'. It was more, ‘Let’s have more of a fabric of people’s identities.’ It would have been better to have had other male singers, but my ego wouldn’t let that happen.”
