Snail Mail Sets 'Ricochet' for March 27, Unveils 'Dead End' and North American Tour

Jordan signals a creative shift with instrumentals-first writing during bi‑coastal sessions.

Overview

  • The 11-track LP arrives March 27 on Matador, her first album since 2021’s Valentine.
  • Lead single “Dead End” is out with a video co-directed with Elsie Richter and filmed across rural North Carolina, where Jordan says police were called during a fireworks shoot.
  • A North American tour begins April 10 in Milwaukee and includes a June 26 London date, with tickets on sale Friday, January 23 at 10 a.m. local time.
  • Sharp Pins will support most shows, with select appearances by Avalon Emerson & the Charm, Swirlies, Armlock, @, and Rocket.
  • Ricochet was recorded with producer and bassist Aron Kobayashi Ritch at Fidelitorium in North Carolina and at Brooklyn’s Nightfly and Studio G after Jordan wrote instrumentals and vocal melodies before lyrics.
