Our third single from The New World, “Slugs in the Marigolds,” was released today, along with my favorite video since “Quiet Americans”.
You can see and hear it here.
My friend Jason Benson and I co-directed the video, and the song features contributions from woodwind legend Doug Wieselman, and the great Shahzad Ismaily on bass.
The New World comes out July 31st. You can pre-order it in digital, LP, or CD format here.
Available for preorder now at your friendly local record shop, on your favorite internet music service, and/or at our Bandcamp page.

A few weeks ago, Shearwater and Loma announced our When Can I See You? Tour—a co-headlining tour in November of this year. The shows would be our first live performances since 2018, and the thought of finally performing live again after eight years is thrilling.
But—to make a long story short—we simply can’t afford this tour without your help. The costs of touring are insane these days,, and even if all the shows sell out, we’d still come up short.
So we’re taking a leap of faith and launching a crowdfund to make up the difference, with the help our nonprofit partners at Fractured Atlas. Goodies we’re offering to entice you range from live recordings and videos to handmade artwork, and you can find all the details here: fundraising.fracturedatlas.org/shearwater/campaigns/19f6e5af-0bb8-4c56-a2b1-589f74d32110
All donations are tax-deductible.
We hope you’ll help us perform again! We’d love to see you.
Shearwater + Loma
