Grace Potter is excited to reveal the album cover art and August release date for her forthcoming debut solo album Midnight. It’s her first new music since 2012’s The Lion The Beast The Beat with her band The Nocturnals. According to Diffuser, Grace Potter has been working on scheduling upcoming tour dates for her solo album. “Alive Tonight” is the newest single from the album and is available for pre-order.

Grace Potter will be performing in her hometown’s music festival in Grand Point North alongside The Flaming Lips. She sang covers of songs written by the Beatles with The Flaming Lips on a previously-aired Jimmy Kimmel show, and has been listed on the Osheaga festival as one of the artists to perform. In addition to Grand Point North, the Osheaga festival, and her already announced summer tour dates, Grace Potter is also performing in the upcoming 11th Mountain Jam.

“Everything about this record has been a wild, wonderful odyssey. I explore new sounds with each album I write and this time around I learned to be patient and really allow each song boil down to it’s most universal form. Eric Valentine’s studio has a creative atmosphere that allows an artist to chase down every crazy idea while producing some of the most exciting, high quality sounds I’ve ever heard. It’s been a life-changing experience and I can’t wait to take my live show even deeper and dive into old and new songs!” said Grace Potter
