ASTRAL SWANS STREAMS ENTIRE NEW ALBUM TODAY

ALL MY FAVORITE SINGERS ARE WILLIE NELSON OUT FEBRUARY 24 ON MADIC RECORDS
PRE-ORDER ASTRAL SWANS DEBUT LP TODAY

NATIONAL TOUR DATES WITH DAN MANGAN + BLACKSMITH & HAYDEN COMMENCE FEBRUARY 18

The twelve songs that make up Astral Swan’s debut LP, All My Favorite Singers Are Willie Nelson, are startlingly sardonic reflections that, in Matthew Swann’s own words, confront "our strange ways of experiencing person-hood, in the moral gorge between ideals and inadequacies.” Set for release on Dan Mangan’s Madic Records on February 24, the album is available to stream in its entirety today courtesy of Exclaim! and is also available for pre-order.


Tracked live in Swann’s living room, and later embellished in an old Calgary warehouse with local experimental/improv mainstay Brad Hawkins (Ghostkeeper), All My Favorite Singers Are Willie Nelson is flawed if not for its air of accidental perfection, normalizing existential struggle with rhythm and harmony, a natural marriage of the sweet to the acrid.

Supporting the record, Astral Swans will criss cross Canada starting tomorrow with Dan Mangan + Blacksmith and Hayden.
