Jet Plane and Oxbow Streaming Now
I’ve been waiting to write this for two years. First, the biggest news. Starting today, if you pre-order (or have already pre-ordered) our new album, Jet Plane and Oxbow, you can listen to it right now, by streaming it via Sub Pop’s web site. The album doesn’t officially release until January 22nd, so this is nearly […]

Introducing…
Our new album, Jet Plane and Oxbow, is available for pre-order now on CD/2xLP/digital download. It’s set for a January 22nd worldwide release.

Reeling it in…
The new album, Jet Plane and Oxbow, is complete, and will see release in early 2016. Tours in the US and Europe (at least) will follow. Here’s a video clip from the sessions, in which Brian and Danny share a moment of discovery. For more information, you can sign up for our old-fashioned, very occasional […]
New Album Nearly Complete
When we began recording Fellow Travelers a year ago, we’d already started working on Jet Plane and Oxbow, and it was strange to return to it after the Fellow Travelers tours of the US and Europe. Since then, we’ve been working on the new album in a way I never have before, in regular sessions […]
Missing Islands leftovers on sale now
The last of the Fellow Travelers tour shows is behind us. The new album looms ahead. Before we move on, though, there’s one loose end to tie up. We know we missed a lot of you on these tours. Many of that number have asked about the tour-exclusive album Missing Islands. We’ve been given permission […]
Heading for Europe + ‘Jet Plane and Oxbow’
16 April. Snow (the last of the year, I hope) last night; it’s mostly melted away this afternoon, but there are still a few traces of it in the shadows. I’ve just packed up the last of my things for our only Europe tour of 2014, which starts in a few days; as usual, I’m […]
Back to the East
Tonight we start the eastern North American leg of the Fellow Travelers tour at The Earl in Atlanta. From there, we’re working our way up the coast, then heading up to Quebec and down through the Great Lakes to Chicago. (See full dates.) Jesca Hoop will again be joining us as an opener and as a band member. If […]
2014 ‘Fellow Travelers’ Tour Starts Here + Missing Islands
First, a present to you, loyal listeners: We recorded it in WNYC’s studio during the Animal Joy tour for use on Radiolab’s “Colors” episode, in which you can hear a fragment as part of the segment “The Perfect Yellow”. But the whole track never surfaced, which was too bad; David Gaume, our sound engineer, spent hours trying valiantly […]

Fellow Travelers is out now worldwide. You can get it at your local independent record store, subpop.com (along with a free sticker, with a t-shirt if you’re so inclined), Amazon, and the other usual suspects. You can also get it digitally at eMusic, iTunes and Google Play, and soon in high resolution at HDTracks. Some […]
