Kimosabé is the sixth studio album by Australian musician Angus Stone, and his fourth under the name Dope Lemon. It was released on 29 September 2023 through BMG Rights Management.

The title track and lead single features a sample from the 2008 film Step Brothers.[1]

Upon announcement in July 2023, Stone said, "This record is everything that's me. In the past, the artwork has been anonymous in a way because I was trying to explore these styles, and having this shield in front of me was beautiful – I could sort of slink around in the shadows and wouldn't have the public make judgement on the person behind it. This record, I had moments of clarity reflecting on my childhood, and I was able to see where I want to be in the future. So putting myself on the cover just felt right."[2]

The album was supported with two shows on 14 and 15 September 2023; one at The Forum, Melbourne and one at the Sydney Opera House.[3]
