Jenny Lewis has announced that her new solo album is titled The Voyager, and will be released on July 29 via Warner Bros Records.
It’s her third solo album, but her first in six years. It’s a personal record, documenting her struggle to cope with the death of her father, as well as the the break-up of her old band, Rilo Kiley. Various artists helped produce tracks off the album, including Beck, Ryan Adams, and Jonathan Rice.
Here’s what Lewis herself had to say about the album:
Making The Voyager got me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. After Rilo Kiley broke up and a few really intense personal things happened, I completely melted down. It nearly destroyed me. I had such severe insomnia that, at one point, I didn’t sleep for five straight nights. Many of the songs on The Voyager came out of the need to occupy my mind in the moments when I just couldn’t shut down.
