On this episode of The Spout Podcast, host Tamara Dhia sits down with LANY — Jake and Paul — to talk about their sixth studio album, Soft. The band opens up about the record’s meaning, how Jake’s near-fatal car accident reshaped his outlook, and why holding onto your softness might be the hardest thing to do in a hard world.
They unpack how Soft blends R&B roots, ‘90s nostalgia, and elevated musicianship with help from Tommy King and legendary bassist Pino Palladino. From the symbolism of the lamb on the album cover to the fan-favorite single “Know You Naked,” LANY reflects on growth, male vulnerability, and the art of staying real — even while running their own social media six albums in.
The conversation ends with talk of upcoming shows, surprise pop-up events, and an unexpected crusade to save the bees.
