Divine Sweater will release their brand new studio album, A Time For Everything, on 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 band previously shared early singles “Counterparts” and “Light Taker” and today are thrilled to reveal brand new album cut “Night Glitter,” inspired by a spiritual awakening experience by frontperson/vocalist Meghan Kelleher at the Planetarium in the American Museum of Natural History just weeks after moving to New York City. The song lives in that senseless, legless hope that something amazing is about to happen. It captures the euphoria of being out too late in a new city, watching everything around you shimmer with possibility.

A Time For Everything has earned acclaim spanning BrooklynVegan, FLOOD Magazine, Atwood Magazine, GRRRL Music, WBUR & more, including 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. It is a record of ends and beginnings, meditating on one’s ability to deal with mortality, loss & grief and having the strength to reset and come out stronger on the other end. 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.
Kelleher reflects, “Over the past couple of years, our whole band really did a lot of wrestling with mortality. We’ve lost a lot of our loved ones, and attended a lot of funerals. Death is just this other chapter in life. It’s just inevitable.” Change is also inevitable, and as Kelleher found herself weighed down by successive personal losses, she and guitarist/vocalist Sean Seaver pulled up stakes in Boston and relocated to Brooklyn. 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.
