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.
YOU DID IT. The Shearwater / Loma “When can I see you?” tour is a certainty.
After a nervous moment in the first week, you came through and lifted us to our goal—and even beyond our goal. The relief and excitement in the SW and Loma camps can hardly be expressed; “Gob-smacked” doesn’t begin to cover it.
You’ve made it possible for us to be performing bands again. We’re profoundly grateful.
Dates, venues, and ticket links can be found at the link in our bio and shearwatermusic.com/tour-dates/
XO,

Thanks to everyone for coming to JM’s solo show at Rough Trade NYC, the first set of Shearwater songs played in the US in 10 years. We really enjoyed meeting you all, and loved hearing your stories. (EL) #landscapeatspeed
Many thanks to Matt Puckett for lending me this beautiful old Gibson for my solo set Thursday the 17th at Rough Trade NYC at 6pm—my first set of Shearwater songs (old and new) in the US in almost a decade. (JM)
(!) If you’d like to come, I think there are still a few tickets left. Link in our bio or dice.fm/event/7dxvev-jonathan-meiburg-shearwater-acoustic-signing-17th-sep-rough-trade-below-new-...
