LILY & MADELEINE’S “CAN’T ADMIT IT” MUSIC VIDEO PREMIERES AT TEEN VOGUE

NEW ALBUM FUMES OUT NOW ON ASTHMATIC KITTY RECORDS

WORLDWIDE FALL/WINTER TOUR DATES CONFIRMED

“…ridiculously charming and sweet harmonies…”—NPR Music

“Their songs have a maturity that transcends their years.”—KCRW

“In a sea of auto-tuned sameness, their soulful and simple harmonies stand out like none other.”—Lucky Magazine

“…the twosome, known for their pinpoint harmonies and vocal precision, had no reservations about flipping the script this go-round: They amped up the production and gave their new album…a far more bombastic sound.” —ELLE Magazine

The official music video for Lily & Madeleine’s new song “Can’t Admit It” premiered yesterday at Teen Vogue and can now be viewed/shared here. Of the up-and-coming sisters, Teen Vogue asserts, “There’s a good chance Lily Jurkiewicz and Madeleine Jurkiewicz are about to become the coolest girls you know…prepare to fall in love the second you hear their voices.”

“Can’t Admit It” is from the duo’s new album, Fumes, which was recently released to widespread critical praise (Asthmatic Kitty Records). Of the music, NPR Music asserts, “Fumes is a misleading record, the way a masterfully performed dance is misleading: It looks easy only because the complexities behind it are unfathomable to outsiders. There’s a borderlessness to Lily & Madeleine that leans from seamlessly natural to mesmerizingly preternatural, hinting at deeper forces at work than skill and practice.” Additionally, the U.K.’s The Independent proclaims, “Never mind Difficult Second Album Syndrome. When Indianapolis sisters Lily & Madeleine released their lovely self-titled album in 2013, their stated aim was to record an album a year for the next three years. True to their word, one year and one day later…Fumes, an even better follow up.”

In celebration of the release, the duo will embark on a worldwide tour this fall and winter, including newly confirmed 2015 dates. See below for complete details. Of their recent live show, No Country For New Nashville praised, “The show, quite simply, was beautiful…these girls command the stage in such a steady, reassuring way that anything more than them just playing their music would be too much. In this case, less is absolutely more, and they’ve mastered it.”

Produced once again by Paul Mahern, the 10-track album was recorded in Bloomington, IN and was written by the sisters and longtime collaborator Kenny Childers (Gentleman Caller). Of the project, Madeleine comments, “Fumes is a new step for us as artists. It shows our transformation as musicians and as women, and was inspired by our experience on the road as well as the life experiences of people close to us. Dedicating more time and working with new artists in the studio allowed us to better create the sound we wanted. It’s a perfect reflection of this stage of our lives.”

The new recording follows the sisters’ self-titled debut album, which was released last year to overwhelming critical acclaim. The New York Times calls Lily & Madeleine, “…extraordinary…,” while Nylon Magazine praises, “…already honed a mature, enchanting sound” and Paste asserts, “stunning singers, smart songwriters, and effortless live performers.” Additionally, in the past year, the duo has appeared on CBS’ “This Morning,” KCRW’s “Morning Becomes Eclectic” and NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk Concert” series.
