Firewater Reveal The Golden Hour, Tour
Genre-hopping collective Firewater have returned from a long absence to deliver their new album. The record is called The Golden Hour, and the music contained therein features contributions from local musicians in India, Pakistan, Turkey, and Israel. The reason why: frontman Tod A's three-year sabbatical from the U.S. in the aforementioned countries, during which he crafted the album. If you want to know more about the trip, either head over to Tod's blog about it or watch the documentary about The Golden Hour's origins included on the enhanced CD.
The Golden Hour comes out May 6 on Bloodshot Records, and Firewater are supporting the record on a world tour that takes up most of April, May, and June. The band's next show is April 8 in Rennes, France.
