Vanessa Carlton unveils “Great House,” a new track from her upcoming seventh studio album ‘Veils,’ arriving in April 2026. Produced by Dave Fridmann (MGMT, Flaming Lips), the record marks another evolution for Carlton, whose career continues to expand beyond the expectations set by her early chart success.
“‘Great House’ is about the place that shapes you the most – this place can be a childhood home, or simply a time of coming of age. This song honors this soul shaping experience and reveals that although we move on, we can never leave our ‘Great House.’” Carlton’s piano-driven storytelling anchors the track, pairing reflection with melodic lift. The atmosphere is intimate and resonant.
Carlton’s U.S. tour in support of ‘Veils’ is on sale now, with $1 from each ticket benefiting Save The Music Foundation. She will also headline a summer U.K. run alongside major festival appearances. From City Winery stages to festival fields, the new material moves directly into live performance.
From her discovery by Ahmet Ertegun to the global success of “A Thousand Miles,” Carlton has built a catalogue that spans pop, indie and theatrical work, including her Broadway turn as Carole King and recent film scoring with John McCauley for Wish You Were Here directed by Julia Stiles. ‘Veils’ continues that forward motion.
