Lord Huron release new song featuring Kristen Stewart, plot extensive tour

Indie rocker Lord Huron are back with a brand new single. "Who Laughs Last?" is out now, and features vocals from none other than Academy Award-nominated actor, Kristen Stewart. This is Stewart's recording debut, and it comes with a Tony Wilson-directed video also featuring Stewart.

Watch/listen below:

On the new song, which is the band's first new original recording in two years, frontman Ben Schneider says:

"I didn’t know Kristen previously but I’d been a big fan since seeing her work with Olivier Assayas, which my wife introduced me to. I kept hearing her voice when I was writing this song and just thought 'what the hell, I’ll reach out and see,' thinking it was a long shot. But she said she was interested so we met up and hit it off talking about books, movies and music. She immediately got what I was going for and had great ideas to boot. She’s just a great person and so creative and open. She added a lot to the video concept as well. It was the kind of collaboration you dream of, honestly."

In addition to this new song, Lord Huron are embarking on a huge tour, taking place after the Strange Trails 10th Anniversary run. It is their largest North American headlining tour yet. They will be joined at various points by different artists, such as Indigo De Souza, Waxahatchee, Kevin Morby, and Feist.

After a spot at Highwater Fesitval in April, and then several sold out dates through May beginning in Reno, they carry on through major big cities like Chicago, Atlanta, Boston, New York, and more. After a brief sojourn through Europe, they're back in the US before closing things out in Los Angeles in November.
