Fleet Foxes and Phoenix will both perform next summer at Spain's Bilbao BBK Live, festival organizers confirmed Thursday.

It marks both acts' first live shows announced ahead of likely upcoming albums. Fleet Foxes said Monday on Facebook they are "alllllmost done" with their new album, the first since 2011's Helplessness Blues.

As we previously mentioned, Phoenix has been teasing fans this week with cryptic social media updates suggesting new music is on the way. Their last album, Bankrupt!, arrived more than three years ago.

It's worth noting, BBK Live takes place in July and it's quite possible both Fleet Foxes and Phoenix will eventually reveal additional shows earlier in the calendar.
