Back in ’07, I was simply in love with Sunset Rubdown‘s “Random Spirit Lover“, entranced by it’s witty tunes and soulful melodies. Naturally, I was left begging for more, but now I can only rejoice seeing how, what’s one of my most anticipated summer releases, “Dragonslayer” is so close from its live date.
Accompanying the new album will also be a lovely summer North American tour, whose schedule can be found bellow. Also, be sure to check out one of the tracks off the new LP – “Idiot Heart,” an amazing song!
