Whitney - Small Talk LP

RELEASE DATE: 11/7/2025

Small Talk is Chicago duo Whitney's fourth and unequivocally best and most affecting album. After a decade of being roommates and bandmates, first in Smith Westerns and then in Whitney, Julien Ehrlich and Max Kakacek entered the studio in the Summer of 2024, sans-producer, with assorted pals dropping into add parts. The result is 11 incandescent songs that delight on two levels. There are instant classic Whitney songs here, tunes that tug at the same heartfelt melodic strings they've always pulled, and still other moments that speak to how much room they gave themselves to evolve.
