Goodbye 2021–and here’s to 2022, the year of The Great Awakening (cultural pun intended). Thank you to everyone who’s been patiently awaiting the new Shearwater album (… and don’t worry, we haven’t gone all Q on you).
Looking forward to sharing this with the world soon. Watch this space for release details…(!)

Available for preorder now at your friendly local record shop, on your favorite internet music service, and/or at our Bandcamp page.
ICYMI - We released a new single, Aqaba, from our upcoming album, The Great Awakening! Watch the full video and add it to your streaming playlists: shearwater.ffm.to/aqaba
You can pre-order the album (LP, CD, digital) here: shearwater.ffm.to/thegreatawakening
Our friend, Bryan C. Parker took a bunch of promo photos for the record out on the ranch. We can't use all of them, so we thought we'd share a nice outtake.
I want to pre-order the vinyl! I missed out on the 180 g deal.
Any CD version in the offing? I am so psyched for your new album . I am in love with all of your albums. I like to have hard copies but if digital is the only format I will deal with it.
I feel honored to have helped fund and support you in this....received my signed CD earlier this week and it's on round the clock rotation here!
This album release is the most important date marked on my calendar!
Just listened and loved it. Between this, and Loma, you're putting out the best music I can imagine. I hear all my favourite bands in there as influences, especially Blue Nile, Talk Talk, Cocteau Twins, etc. Album ordered and I cant wait to hear it in full...and then, hopefully, live.
Love you man and i love the way you manage the crossover from your passion and music i can so relate to you. I hope the new album is a great success you deserve and the band of course.
The vinyl may be (slightly) delayed but I am waiting patiently and deliberately not listening to any of it until then! I know it'll be awesome... 😊
Fantastic! Patiently waiting for the album release.
Steven Wilson includes this track in his all-time top 100 in his newly-published memoir, A Limited Edition Of One.
Great song !
Cant wait
Love seeing your face! ^_^
Lovely🥰
Beautiful 👌

What a beautiful photo 🤗
Friends, it's Bandcamp Friday! If you have not pre-ordered The Great Awakening, this is a great day to do so. We have a swiftly dwindling number of signed CDs (86 as of this post). Thank you so much for your support, as always.

If you are looking for The Great Awakening LP, the first edition signed copies are sold out, but you can pre-order the standard double LP via this link or at your favorite local record store: shearwater.ffm.to/thegreatawakening
Yes, postage from the US is pretty crazy these days - don’t we know it! If you’d prefer to pre-order locally, that is an excellent option! Local options should be in that second link we provided, or you can always order from your local indie record store.
Sorry I was about to order but the shipping to England and taxes are more than the cost of the CD. I’ll wait until it’s released here and forgo a signed copy ☹️
the postage to norway is so insane high 🙁
Hi Belinda, you can preorder from Manchester, www.piccadillyrecords.com/counter/product.php?pid=143272

Beautiful. Super bummed I missed out on the first run of vinyl. Will there be more vinyl later?
Absolutely stunning song! Just love it. Have seen you play many times and can’t wait for the album! Description of Jonathan’s voice is just so accurate and it’s a voice that could never be confused.
That song is absolutely mesmerising, love it. Great review
What a beautiful track, looking forward to hearing the whole album.
John 👌🏻
This sums it up perfectly: Few singers have a voice that can melt the universe quite like Shearwater's Jonathan Meiburg. Congratulations on a well deserved review to all!
