They're touring now! A few dates down the west coast: http://www.groundcontroltouring.com/artists/helen
I live nowhere near but someone taped the first night in Portland last week and put it on D!me, sounds great. A few new songs, so hopefully a new record in the works.

i was at the portland show, it was great, though felt like they oversold tickets at the very small venue. viewing space was shoulder to shoulder packed and there were dozens and dozens of people in the overflow area. nobody in the band spoke a single word or even glanced at the crowd, which is always part of the LH experience. mostly just felt honored to be able to see Helen, felt like spotting a ghost in the daylight.

My last.fm tells me I didn't listen to a single Grouper song last year. Just put Alien Observer on and can sense why: the experience of lockdown is right there in the fabric of the music, like comet tail scintilla, blown back into itself.

After Borges: the pandemic invents its musical precursors.
