Local Natives shared a new track today with the expansive and soothing standalone single “Just Before the Morning.” It was recorded across Valentine Recording Studio, 64Sound, and Sargent Recorders. The new song follows their double single release from this summer, "Desert Snow" and "Hourglass."

“‘Just Before The Morning’ came from a burst of creativity after we finally reconnected in the studio," the band said. "The song explores the cyclical nature of life and the many ways in which we begin again.”

Alongside the new single, Local Natives announced a pair of LA shows at Hollywood Forever Cemetery's Masonic Lodge on November 15 and 16. "We'll play deep cuts, different versions of songs, and new music (including our first performance of 'JBTM' and most likely including more unreleased songs)," they revealed.
