Wye Oak, the beloved Baltimore duo of Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack, release “Every Day Like the Last” via Merge Records. The songs that comprise the collection, which includes brand-new songs and previously released singles, were made during a period when Wye Oak was in flux, after a decade-plus of steadily releasing albums and touring between 2019 and 2023. Sonically, the collection represents Wasner and Stack getting back to basics, balancing the organic and the artificial, using electronics and programming to add new textures, as showcased by singles “Every Day Like the Last” and “I Learned It From You.”
To mark the occasion the band have shared lyric videos for the whole album, including one for album standout “Repeat (If You Remind Me).”
“This song is about experiencing doubt, and the exhaustion that comes from losing your grip on your own truth,” Wasner explains. “It’s in these moments when we lean into those who we know and trust in the hope that they can remind us of what we once knew—who we are, how far we’ve come, and what truly matters.”
