Divine Sweater will release their brand new studio album, A Time For Everything, this Friday, September 13 via Better Company Records. The deceivingly upbeat and breathtaking collection of shimmering indie-pop, features production by Better Company honcho and San Fermin founder Allen Tate. The new collection has earned acclaim spanning BrooklynVegan, FLOOD Magazine, Atwood Magazine, GRRRL Music, WBUR and early preview track “Deep Side” released earlier this year which went went viral on TikTok, receiving over two million views and catching the attention of none other than Kevin Bacon.
Today Divine Sweater brings the album’s core message to the forefront with the release of title track “A Time For Everything“. “A Time for Everything” is a passage commonly read at funerals. It reminds mourners that death is both an inevitable tragedy and a powerful catalyst for transformation. The song is set in that delusional mid-funeral haze when you can’t quite wrap your head around the reality and finality of death. It reimagines the spectacle of the funeral as an elaborate, illusive magic show. “A Time for Everything” interrogates grief, reframing loss as a catapult toward self-actualization. It urges listeners to change their lives before it’s too late, to “burn it down and start all over.”

Fearlessly honest and strapped with sonic influences spanning Haim, Alvvays, First Aid Kit and Angel Olsen, the notably darker subject matter represents Divine Sweater’s immersion into uncertain realms, achieving catharsis through the process as they wrestled with mortality. A Time for Everything is a documentation of death and renewal, cataloging the personal changes that take place as the world’s axis continues to shift from under us. The band wrestles with these emotions, bringing them to life with jangly sophisti-pop hooks and a dynamic live show. Catch Divine Sweater on tour this fall with stops in NYC, Chicago, DC and more.
