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.

At long last, the new Loma album, "How Will I Live Without a Body?" has finally been released by Sub Pop Records . I'm unwrapping the LP for the first time in the video.
I'm very proud of this record. It took many months of work on two continents, and I'm still a bit amazed that what started as a backstage conversation at a Shearwater / Cross Record show in 2017 is three albums in.
(NB: please don't worry that I'm setting Shearwater aside—we're partway through a new record, in fact, which I'll have more about soon.)
But Loma has been a fascinating journey for me, especially as a songwriter and arranger. And if you like the gentle/grand/atmospheric/eerie sides of SW, I think I can guarantee that you'd make friends with this album. Though it's also its own (rare) beast.

It really is very, very good.
Subpop almost always hits the spot for me. Gonna go listen now!
I still have a cd player, so if you want to donate, its welcome! I know, I can order it, nice try
I love the artwork for the cover! ❤️
Congratulations!! Looking for it right now!

This is one of the best caracara videos I've ever seen. See if you can make out what the bird (a crested caracara) is thinking, especially when it 'speaks'...I'd like to think it's approximating a meow. JM ... See MoreSee Less
Curiosity killed the cat, but a pane of glass brought him back. 🤣 I think the caracara is sincerely curious and making a connection. I don't trust the cat's motives though.
What an amazing creature.
What a beautiful bird! PS there was a crested caracara sighting here in Wisconsin a few days ago 😮
Where is this video taken? He looks and sounds a bit different to our caranchos 😊
That’s my social life in a nutshell.

Dear Friends,
File under "Shearwater-adjacent": After a long wait, the third Loma album, How Will I Live Without A Body?, is available today for pre-order from Sub Pop Records.

I'm really proud of this record. It's dreamy and enveloping, and took us places we never thought we would go. We recorded it over the past two years in Texas, NYC, Germany, and the UK.
As usual with Loma, we wrote the music together—though I wrote a hefty chunk of the lyrics.
There's also a beautiful video, directed by our singer Emily Cross, for the first single "How It Starts" (which can be found in the link). It has a surprise ending, which should answer any questions about touring in the near term.
Other than this, I'm busy as ever. There'll be some real Shearwater news soon—and I'm still working on a new book about the once and future life of Antarctica.
I hope this finds you well, wherever you may be—and all the very best to you and yours. JM ... See MoreSee Less
