On October 28th 2022, Canadian duo Junior Boys will release their sixth album, ‘Waiting Game’, on City Slang. Six years since their last album, 2016’s ‘Big Black Coat’.

‘Waiting Game’ finds producers Jeremy Greenspan and Matt Didemus in a tender and contemplative mood; a switch-up from their punchy, R&B-infused dance melodics.

The album’s additonal musicians are Canadians, too; Caribou collaborator Colin Fisher performs saxophone throughout and Bonjay frontwoman Alanna Stuart sings alongside Greenspan on the song “Yes 2”.

In this, Junior Boys have made an album that reflects the quiet beauty of the world, so long as you’re prepared to truly listen.

Junior Boys will embark on an extensive 20th anniversary headline tour in January and March 2023.

“Junior Boys carry on their love affair with dance music
and electronica [...]” -The Guardian

“The power lies in Didemus and Greenspan‘s knack for effusive melody and acute dance floor know-how, a potent combination that remarkably never becomes formulaic.” -Resident Advisor
