On the heels of the award season—during which she won a Grammy, a Golden Globe, and an Academy Award for “What Was I Made For” (from the Barbie soundtrack)—Billie Eilish is poised to return to the spotlight with the May 17 release of her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft. For fans who weren’t able to grab tickets to the first-look listening parties at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and L.A.’s Kia Forum, Eilish has partnered with AMC Theatres and Apple Music to bring the live listening experience to theaters across the U.S., ahead of the album’s official release. Eilish and her brother and co-writer, FINNEAS, have insisted the album is best experienced “all at once” and in order. For $5 at your local AMC, you can do just that.
