On October 16, 2015, the band debuted a new song called “Roman Candle” (which would later be released as “Walk It Back” on Sleep Well Beast ) at Troubadour in Los Angeles. In an interview published in November 2015, Berninger expressed the band’s desire to play their new songs in a live setting before recording them: “Over the summer of 2016 we’re going to do a lot of shows with the new stuff and then record the next National album.” On March 2, 2016, it was announced that the band was to headline Latitude Festival in the United Kingdom . In August 2016, Berninger indicated that the new album had electronic influences while they premiered the song “Prom Song 13th Century (Frankie & Johnny)” featuring St. Vincent.
