The Loneliest Time is the upcoming fifth studio album and seventh album release by Canadian singer-songwriter and pop music genius Carly Rae Jepsen. It is set to be released on October 21, 2022, through 604 Records in Canada, and School Boy and Interscope Records in the United States. The album was preceded by the release of its lead single, "Western Wind", which was followed by "Beach House". In support of the album, Jepsen will embark on the North American leg of The So Nice Tour, which is set to commence on 21 September 2022 in Cleveland, Ohio and end on 5 November 2022 in Chicago, Illinois. The Loneliest Time is Jepsen's first album release since May 2020. It is highly anticipated by Jepsen's fanbase. The signed standard CD and signed alternative cover CD of The Loneliest Time sold out quickly, indicating a high debut on Billboard 200.

Background

In May 2020, Jepsen revealed that she's recorded an "entire quarantine album" during the lockdown. Jepsen spoke to The Guardian that she was writing songs over Zoom alongside longtime collaborator Tavish Crowe.[1]

While discussing the album in an interview with Crack Magazine, Jepsen stated she wanted to be less conscious of the decades she's been moving. Instead, she was inspired by various styles, including 80s pop, 70s folk, funk, and disco. Jepsen also explained she wanted to become more self-reflective and analytical of her own behaviours.

"I had the playground of all the eras to jump from, and this was more just writing from the heart, in whatever direction the songs wanted to go, ... It excited me to have those moments of flirtation on the [new] album, but also broaden the spectrum of what the subject of a pop song was allowed to be,"[2]

Promotion

"Western Wind" was released as the lead single on May 6, 2022. The album was made available to pre-order on August 2, 2022.[3]
