Galantis release long-awaited third album ‘Church

Galantis — the Swedish production duo of Christian Karlsson and Linus Eklöw — released their long-awaited third studio album, ‘Church,’ out now via Big Beat Records, arriving after 2015’s ‘Pharmacy’ and 2017’s ‘The Aviary.’ The record leans into the euphoric, festival-scaled melodies the duo built their name on.

The duo open the Church of Galantis Tour a week later, at Brooklyn’s Great Hall on 14 February, before eight shows carry them through to 24 April and a close at Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheater.

“It’s important for us to have meaning behind our music,” Galantis said.

Advance singles ‘Holy’ and ‘Faith’ preceded the album — the latter a collaboration with Dolly Parton that gave her a first number one on Billboard’s electronic chart. Festival dates are booked too, including Lollapalooza and Ultra.
