Good Times is the fifth studio album by Danish band Lukas Graham, released on 14 August 2026, through Universal. The album is supported by four singles: "To Know a Girl", "Second Chance", the title track "Good Times", and "Before You Go". It serves as the follow-up to their fourth studio album 4 (The Pink Album) (2023). It is their first album not to re-use the cover from their debut.
Background Good Times differentiates from Lukas Graham's usual music style, switching out their well-known pop-soul music for folk-pop music, with lead singer Lukas Forchhammer wanting to reconnect with his Irish roots he took after his late father, Eugene Graham, who was born in the town of Donegal. Forchhammer said he recorded the album with "people my dad knew. People who had slept on a couch in my mom and dad's living room. It was very important to me that we got a hold of some of these musicians and got that cultural connection."
