Dekker - Neither up nor down - Tour 2026

Dekker - Neither up nor down - Tour 2026

Accomplished American singer/songwriter Brookln Dekker plunges deep into his new, most ambitious and immediate album to date: "Neither Up Nor Down," due out September 26, 2025.

Building on a momentous 2024 with 70 million streams and dozens of concerts to ever-growing audiences across Europe, Dekker (as he's better known) has tapped into a rich personal vein for the 11-song LP. "Neither Up Nor Down" defies both the pitch black and the blinding light of longtime love, the divine, and the relationship of the human and animal selves.

This is carried by Dekker's boldest and purest songwriting to date - aided by his longtime friend and collaborator, Berlin-based drummer Stefan Wittich, and mixed/mastered by Zach Hanson (Bon Iver, The Staves, Low, Waxahatchee).

"Familiar Beat", one of the album's previously released singles, already feels like a Dekker classic with its cheerful "Boom Ba/Boom Ba" refrain that invites you to tap along. The first single "Not Feeling Up" is the most melancholy fun you can have in a three-minute pop pick-me-up. Dekker ironically demands: "I'm not feeling up now / Not feeling up now / Can we get down?"
