Tim Heidecker is back with new music.

Titled “Slipping Away,” the album will be released Oct. 18 by Bloodshot Records. Announcing the new record, Heidecker put out a music video for the lead single, “Well’s Running Dry,” about writer’s block — and aging.

“As soon as I wrote that, I worried that itʼs not cool to talk about,” Heidecker said in a statement to PvNew. “But a second later, I thought — well thatʼs challenging and exciting. Letʼs push past that.”

Described as his “warmest and fullest record to date,” “Slipping Away” was recorded with the Very Good Band — Eliana Athayde on bass, vocals and additional production; Josh Adams on drums; Vic Berger on keys; and Connor “Catfish” Gallaher on guitar and pedal steel. Plus, there’s a special contribution from Timʼs daughter, Amelia.Tim Heidecker Announces New Music Album ‘Slipping Away’

Working with the band gave Heidecker’s music an exciting live feel. “Having been doing quote-unquote ʻentertainmentʼ for 20 years now in different forms, it was a revitalizing experience to be out of my comfort zone a little bit. It was a learning opportunity,” Heidecker said of recording “Slipping Away.”

The album’s 10 songs “tap into universal anxieties, familiar settings, and, occasionally, a blast of apocalyptic unease,” per the press release.

While Heidecker is perhaps best known for his work with Eric Wareheim in their comedy duo Tim & Eric, as well as his appearances in films like “Bridesmaids,” “Us” and “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” he isn’t interested in categorizing his art between comedy and music.

“I finally got to a point where I was like, ʻLetʼs stop thinking about these things as genres.ʼ It comes out in different formats but hopefully it all becomes one big thing that Iʼm making. I think itʼs fairly united,” Heidecker said.

Additionally, Tim Heidecker & the Very Good Band will support Waxahatchee with Snail Mail on a run of East Coast dates, including a co-headlining show with Snail Mail at New York’s SummerStage. Tour dates and ticket information can be found here.
