As we told you earlier this year, Natural Child planned on dropping 3 LPs in 2012 — The reissue of ‘Bodyswitchers’ in March (originally released on cassette via Infinity Cat) and ‘For the Love of he Game’ that dropped on Burger Records on April 20th, and now ‘Hard In Heaven,’ which is also coming out via Burger Records on September 11th!
The first single from ‘Hard In Heaven’ is a track called ‘B$G P$MP$N,’ and in per a typical Natural Child fashion, simplistically and almost effortlessly kills it once again… Check out the hot track below and also catch Natural Child all over this US this Summer! And if you live in Texas, the Nashville 3-piece just announced an 8-city mini tour focused just on the Lone Star state w/ Birdcloud… How ’bout bring that kind of line-up to Chattanooga? Just sayin’…
And since we’re talkin’ Birdcloud, check out the video to their latest single HERE… enjoy:
