Passwords is the sixth studio album by American folk rock band Dawes. It was released on June 22, 2018. [5] [6]
Passwords saw the return of producer Jonathan Wilson, who had worked on the band's first two albums. According to the group, the record is "for and about the modern age: the relationships that fill it, the politics that divide it, and the small victories and big losses that give it shape." [7] Dawes launched a marketing campaign for the album that encouraged fans to search for "passwords" posted throughout the internet. Once a password was found, it could be entered onto a page of the band's official website, where each part of the password represented a musical note. When entered correctly, these musical notes played various refrains from Dawes songs and unlocked exclusive content, including the singles "Never Gonna Say Goodbye" and "Telescope" as well as a Spotify playlist curated by Griffin Goldsmith. [8]
All songs written by Taylor Goldsmith, except where noted.
