Sleepless Night finds indie rock stalwarts Yo La Tengo exploring new and familiar terrain with a mix of heartfelt covers and a poignant original, "Bleeding." Originally released in conjunction with artist Yoshitomo Nara’s 2020 exhibition catalogue for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, this EP showcases the band’s knack for reinvention and their deep musical influences, channeling legends like Bob Dylan and Carole King through their singular alternative lens.
This EP stands out not only for its inspired track selection but also for its unique artistic collaborations, featuring original cover art by Yoshitomo Nara, a band drawing by Georgia, and an etched illustration by James on the record’s flip side. Fans and collectors alike will appreciate how Sleepless Night seamlessly merges visual art and music, making it a memorable addition to Yo La Tengo’s celebrated catalog.
