Description

Angel Olsen has announced her new album Big Time. It’s out June 3 via Jagjaguwar and features the new single “All the Good Times.”

According to the album’s announcement, Big Time was written during a period of time when Olsen was coming out as queer. “Some experiences just make you feel as though you’re 5 years old, no matter how wise or adult you think you are,” Olsen said in a statement about coming out to her parents around that time. “Finally, at the ripe age of 34, I was free to be me.” Both of her parents died just before she began recording the album.

Big Time was recorded and mixed with co-producer Jonathan Wilson. It also features pianist and organist Drew Erickson and bassist Emily Elhaj. The new album is the follow-up to Olsen’s 2021 covers EP Aisles and the 2020 album Whole New Mess—a counterpart to 2019’s All Mirrors.
