Unknown Mortal Orchestra return with new single 'Weekend Run'

Despite staying busy over the last few years with a string of collaborations and remixes, as well as their IC-01 Hanoi project, Unknown Mortal Orchestra have now returned to deliver a brand new single of their own.

The new track 'Weekend Run' marks their first piece of new material since their 2018 album 'Sex & Food', and continues their fresh and vibrant direction throughout.

Speaking about the new offering, the band's Ruban Nielson said, "At the end of the day I don't take for granted that I have the perfect job - I truly work to make music that will set someone's day right and I think that shines through on Weekend Run."
