This summer we spoke with Beth Tacular of Bowerbirds who dropped us a line to let us know the band was in the studio working on their follow-up to 2009’s ‘Upper Air.’ Well, album number 3 is now officially in the bag and the mixing and mastering process has begun! The LP is entited ‘The Clearing’ and hits shelves March 6th via Dead Oceans Records.
Check out the album’s first single, ‘Tuck the Darkness In,’ below along with Bowerbirds’ 2012 Spring tour dates… Oh, and Dear Bowerbirds: I know Monday nights are not the greatest days to stop by smaller cities that are located between 2 larger cities.. but a 4-16 Chattanooga date would be pretty killer… just sayin’
