Older (Lizzy McAlpine album)
studio album by Lizzy McAlpine
Older is the third studio album and major-label debut by American singer-songwriter Lizzy McAlpine, released on April 5, 2024, by RCA Records. It serves as the follow-up to her previous album, Five Seconds Flat (2022). McAlpine wrote and produced Older in Los Angeles with Mason Stoops, Ryan Lerman, Jeremy Most, Tony Berg, Taylor Mackall, and Ethan Gruska.
The album centers on relationships, heartbreak, and self-acceptance. Older is primarily an Indie folk and chamber pop record, with elements of baroque pop. The album was preceded by the release of two singles: the title track on February 13, and "I Guess" on March 13; the former was promoted with a televised appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. In support of Older, the singer embarked on The Older Tour in 2024, visiting North America and Europe.
Upon release, Older was met with positive reviews from music critics, with praise towards McAlpine's greater maturity and artistic growth. It debuted and peaked at number 93 on the US Billboard 200, while also charting moderately on the main charts in Australia, Flanders, Ireland, and New Zealand. A deluxe edition of the album, titled Older (and Wiser), was released on October 4, 2024.
