WIDOWSPEAK SHARE NEW SINGLE, "THE DREAM"

WIDOWSPEAK SHARENEW SINGLE, " THE DREAM "
NEW ALBUM EXPECT THE BEST OUT VIA CAPTURED TRACKS AUGUST 25
NEW TOUR DATES ADDED IN NORTH AMERICA + EUROPE
Today Widowspeak reveal the third single, "The Dream," from their forthcoming full-length  Expect The Best .  Calling the track a "sublime escape,"  Spin  premiered "The Dream" alongside their feature on the band. Of the album they say,"throughout Expect the Best, familiar vintage textures and dreamy vocals only partially disguise a sense that all may not be well. The alt-rock influence slips in as a brooding chill, a spookiness that never found such voice on past Widowspeak albums."  Read the story here and listen to today's single here:  
STREAM "THE DREAM"
Widowspeak will release Expect The Best on August 25 on Captured Tracks. In support of the new album, the band will tour the US this fall, beginning in Boston onSeptember 8 at The Great Scott and concluding in Brooklyn at Rough Trade onOctober 13. All dates are listed below including newly confirmed shows in the US and Europe.

Expect the Best is the follow up to 2015's All Yours. While previous albums were conceived as a duo with lead guitarist Robert Earl Thomas, the new LP finds Widowspeak playing to the specific strengths of the current touring incarnation (James Jano on drums, Willy Muse on bass). The album, recorded by Kevin MacMahon(Swans, Real Estate), exhibits a marked increase in energy that reflects the band's live show and the organic way it was created: by four people in a room together. The band collectively navigate dynamic changes with subtlety and restraint; the nine tracks here reach highs of wide-eyed lushness and plumb the depths of resigned melancholy. Their usual palette of dusty guitars and angular twang are still here front and center, but now with a bit more 90s homage, even if abstractly.
