M. Ward announces new album 'A Wasteland Companion'
M. Ward has announced that he'll be following up the release of Hold Time with a new album this April.
A Wasteland Companion will be released through Bella Union on April 9th 2012.
This is what M. Ward had to day about the album:
“Between now and when I made Hold Time there has been a lot of travelling which requires a lot of reckoning with what to leave behind and what to carry – material and otherwise – and thinking about what I want versus what I need, creatively and otherwise. I wanted to get a reflection of that on the album. It was a process of stripping away my security blanket, which is the same four walls I always record in.”
You can pre-order the album by heading here. Make sure to check out his forthcoming tour dates too (below the artwork/tracklisting).
