Singer-songwriter, Prateek Kuhad has announced his new album, The Way That Lovers Do, out May 20th via Elektra Records. Recorded at Seattle’s secluded Bear Creek Studio with Ryan Hadlock (The Lumineers, Vance Joy), the album features 11 brand-new tracks about human love, friendship, and connectivity.
Alongside the announcement, Kuhad also released the album’s intimate lead single “Just A Word,” which arrives alongside a whimsical music video directed by Alex DiMarco (Khalid, Lauv, Wiz Khalifa). Watch the video now below and pre-order The Way That Lovers Do HERE.
Prateek expanded on the single’s roots, noting, “I wanted to write something that was a bit more pop for fun, compared to my older, folksier stuff.”
On the album, he said “Being at Bear Creek and working quite solitary, I worked with a lot of sounds and production techniques that were new for me. This record feels like the most ‘me’ in that sense – it really is exactly what I wanted to do.”
In celebration of the record, Kuhad has also announced “The Way That Lovers Do” tour, a North American headline run which kicks off June 2nd in Dallas, TX. Tickets are available for presale beginning Tuesday, March 22nd at 10am local time, with general onsale beginning Friday, March 25th at 10am local time.
