Panda Bear Releases New Single 'Ferry Lady'

Panda Bear has released a new single titled 'Ferry Lady', which serves as the second preview of his upcoming album 'Sinister Grift', set to launch on February 28. The track features a buoyant groove complemented by warm acoustic guitar and psychedelic synths, along with a visually striking music video directed by Danny Perez. Collaborating with his Animal Collective bandmate Josh Dibb, Panda Bear described the creative process for the album as a sacred return to their roots, as they worked together in a similar fashion to when they started in 1991. Following the single's release, Panda Bear will embark on a North American tour starting in February, with additional European dates planned. The album follows last year’s lead single, 'Defense', which featured Cindy Lee. 'Sinister Grift' is highly anticipated, having been named one of the most awaited albums of 2025.
