In Evening Air is the second album by American synth-pop band Future Islands, released on May 4, 2010 by Thrill Jockey records. It is titled after a poem of the same name by Theodore Roethke from his final collection, The Far Field. The album art was produced by former band member Kymia Nawabi.[1]
In Evening Air was heavily influenced by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark's 1983 album, Dazzle Ships.[2][3]

[Samuel T. Herring:] Dazzle Ships... became a huge inspiration and influence in creating our second album In Evening Air, not only in the sounds that we were using but in the actual track layout of that record.

[William Cashion:] We kept coming back to Dazzle Ships as a reference... We made a huge leap forward with our [In Evening Air] album because of Dazzle Ships' influence.
