Kim Gordon
PLAY ME
Matatdor
Released 03/13/26
Kim Gordon has unveiled her new album PLAY ME courtesy of Matador Records. Produced by Justin Raisen, her third solo studio album follows 2024’s GRAMMY Award-nominated The Collective and is preceded by a trio of official singles in the form of “NOT TODAY,” “DIRTY TECH” and the title track.
“We wanted the songs to be short,” the Sonic Youth co-founder explains in an official statement. “We wanted to do it really fast. It’s more focused, and maybe more confident. I always kind of work off of rhythms, and I knew I wanted it to be even more beat-oriented than the last one. Justin really gets my voice and my lyrics and he understands how I work—that came forth even more on this record.”
“It’s more inward, in a way,” Gordon adds. “It’s a bit more emotional, and less outside of things.”
To support the album, Gordon will embark upon a spring & summer tour that commences April 2nd in Los Angeles and concludes July 29th at San Francisco’s famed Castro Theatre.
