Tigers Jaw – the band of Ben Walsh (guitar, vocals), Brianna Collins (keys, vocals), Mark Lebiecki (guitar), Colin Gorman (bass), and Teddy Roberts (drums) – today announced their highly anticipated new studio album “Lost on You” will be released on March 27th, 2026, via Hopeless Records.
Their seventh album and follow-up to their critically-acclaimed 2021 LP, “I Won’t Care How You Remember Me”, was produced & engineered by their longtime collaborator Will Yip (Turnstile, Movements) at his famed Studio 4 in Philadelphia and captures the energy and spirit of the quintet’s live show.
Tigers Jaw today also shared the album’s exhilarating lead single “Head is Like a Sinking Stone” alongside a video of tour footage shot by the band throughout the years and edited by Ricky Christian.
Watch the music video for “Head is Like a Sinking Stone” below.
Originating as a guitar riff written by their newest member Lebiecki and later completed by the band, Walsh notes the lyrics of “Head is Like a Sinking Stone” were inspired by a recurring dream from his childhood. “When I was a kid I had a strange recurring dream of jumping off the high dive at Nay Aug Park pool in Scranton, and after jumping in, time would just sort of freeze and I’d just be stuck there underwater”, says Walsh. “The premise was pretty terrifying but the visual of sunshine reflecting on the ripples of water from the perspective of being beneath the surface was always kind of hauntingly beautiful. The chorus lyric sprung from a recollection of that dream and the rest followed. It serves as a kind of reminder to myself that beauty can be found in unexpected situations”.
“Lost on You” is now available for pre-order here.

Despite our deepest desires, time only continues to move forward, slowly and incessantly. We attempt to understand the present through our conceptions of the past, and we hope to use that understanding to guide the future. These simple chronological divisions offer us a simple way to organize our lives: where we’ve been, where we are now, where we hope to be. Despite their connections, they feel disparate, always looking at one through the lens of another. On “Lost on You”, Tigers Jaw pose a much more holistic idea: we exist in all of these timelines at once.
With five years since their last release, Walsh noted that the band “wanted to feel confident in the material we have and let things progress naturally”. And so they took their time finding what felt right, even though, of course, life continued on all around them. The result is a Tigers Jaw record as great as you’d expect. Songs like “Primary Colors” and “Baptized on a Redwood Drive” find the band embracing a driving midtempo similar to alt rock heroes Jimmy Eat World or Weezer, with other tracks like “Head is Like a Sinking Stone” and “BREEZER” feeling so classic that the best reference is Tigers Jaw themselves. They sing about blades and knives, anxieties and intentions, and timeless TJ topics like two worlds and ghosts.
These songs are portals taking us between different parts of the band’s life and even our own lives, showing us how we can understand time not as a linear narrative but as something that is all real and knowable at once. They weren’t able to get here without starting somewhere else—somewhere we as fans can instantly recognize and relate to. And while where they are going may still be unknown to us, we can see traces of it here already. It’s uncertain but true, something we are constantly grappling with as time continues to inevitably pass. But there is beauty in it if we can accept it, finding contentment in just attempting to know ourselves. As Collins sings on “Primary Colors”, “I understand it all now/It’s not supposed to make sense”.
