With 2025 soon coming to an end, we are already looking ahead to next year\u2019s releases. One of the albums slated for an early 2026 release that we are highly anticipating will come from the hands of Pullman<\/a>, a studio-born acoustic supergroup that took root in the fertile soil of Chicago\u2019s post-rock scene in the late \u201990s, bringing together Ken \u201cBundy K.\u201d Brown (Tortoise\/Directions in Music), Curtis Harvey (Rex), Chris Brokaw (Come), and Doug McCombs (Tortoise\/Eleventh Dream Day), with drummer Tim Barnes rounding out the lineup.<\/p>\n

Pullman first surfaced on Thrill Jockey in 1998 with Turnstyles & Junkpiles<\/em>, and three years later, Viewfinder<\/em> arrived. With these two releases, and as the press release explains, Pullman “became a touchstone for acoustic, song-adjacent instrumental music: folk in spirit, post-rock in method, and timeless in tone.”<\/p>\n

More than twenty years on, the band returns with III<\/em>, a record shaped by friendship, endurance, and time.\u00a0Out on January 9th through Western Vinyl<\/a>, III<\/em> is introduced with the dazzling and dreamy lead single ‘Weightless’. The single is offered with an accompanying video and you can watch it below.<\/p>\n
