Here's a nice Friday treat! St. Lucia has confirmed their third album, titled Hyperion, will arrive on Sept. 21.

To celebrate, they've shared a brand new song called "Walking Away," the lead single off the upcoming 11-track album, which will also include their previously released songs "A Brighter Love and "Paradise Is Waiting," both of which arrived last month.

"Damn, ‘Walking Away’ has been in the works for a really long time," says St. Lucia ringleader Jean-Philip Grobler of the new track, which the band had previously debuted live back in 2016. "I wrote it with Nicky [Paul] and Ross [Clark] from the band before we even started recording our last album Matter ... The song came together super quickly and what you hear in this final version is about 60% the original demo—we just had to replace the Daft Punk loop we wrote on top of with something else, so that took about four years. So here it is, our funky beast."

As we also previously mentioned, the band is also heading out on the road this fall, with support from Now, Now; The Night Game; and Arkells, on select dates.
