Today The Fresh & Onlys share a new track, “Presence of Mind” from their upcoming LP. The band just announced a full North American tour in support of the album, Long Slow Dance, due Sept. 4th on Mexican Summer. The band will be joined on the tour by Terry Malts, Grass Widow and Quilt.
Long Slow Dance, The Fresh & Onlys’ fourth highly anticipated album, brings a great new shapeshifting sound. This thing’s a breakthrough; the band are joyous, confident–almost dangerous. It’s due in North America on Sept. 4 on Mexican Summer.
“Phil Manley certainly had a good influence on us in the studio; he’s very meticulous with the kind of sound he’s trying to get for each song, and the record definitely has its own vibe,” he says.
