The New Pornographers kick off their West Coast tour on November 7 and are celebrating in style with the release of “Firework in the Falling Snow (Acoustic Version).” This reworking of the A.C. Newman/Sadie Dupuis–penned Continue as a Guest standout features a guest of its own, as Aimee Mann lends her voice on the harmony. The acoustic rendition of “Firework in the Falling Snow” is available to stream now on your platform of choice!

“I played the new song ‘Firework in the Falling Snow’ at last year’s Aimee Mann and Ted Leo Christmas Show, and Aimee joined me on vocals,” frontperson A.C. Newman says of the collaboration. “So I figured, let’s do a for-real studio version like this, and here it is. Honored to sing with her—she is a giant and just a cool person.”

Continue as a Guest, The New Pornographers’ debut album on Merge Records, was released to widespread acclaim in March. The power pop icons utilized the physical distance between them to explore rich, new sonic vistas to the delight of new and longtime fans alike. Get reacquainted with Continue as a Guest and see The New Pornographers this November—tickets are available now!
