So the album is called "19th of August" and it comes out on the 4th of July, got it...I'm diggin the teaser track

big fan of this track!

[MMJCOBRA]

Totally agreed. Sleepy lagoon just sounds so damn cool. All birds say was just a little too sparse for my taste but this new song has that Carl swagger!!!

Who's on drums??

This interview with Carl just came out yesterday (June 27, 2016).

Published on Jun 27, 2016
My Morning Jacket's Carl Broemel, has announced the forthcoming release of his new solo album 4th of July and shared the first single "Sleepy Lagoon" today on Pitchfork.
Co-produced by Teddy Morgan, the LP is slated for release on August 19 via Broemel's newly formed label Stocks in Asia alongside Thirty Tigers.

Though forged by Broemel, he also collaborated with those close to him: Bo Koster and Tom Blankenship of My Morning Jacket both appear on the record, with Koster co-writing a few tracks. Guest appearances also include Neko Case, Laura Veirs, Russ Pollard, Shelly Colvin, Richard Medek and Jordan Caress.

Broemel worked on the record between album and tour cycles in Nashville. The result is an album that examines the passage of time marveling at how different our lives look now from the engrained images of ourselves that we've held onto from the past. 4th of July is a reflective meditation.

Working on 4th of July was a way for Broemel to engage in musical explorations on his own. Broemel says, "this album is just me trying to compete with my own abilities -- it was a challenge to do it on my own."

In addition to 4th of July and My Morning Jacket, Broemel is currently on tour as a member of Ray LaMontagne's band with a full solo tour coming soon. A list of current tour dates are below with more to come.

Preorder the album here, preorder vinyl and CDs here, and be sure to check out the first single "Sleepy Lagoon".

This track is 100% certified DOPE!!! Some of the most gorgeously intense axe work I've ever heard.

Can't wait to dig into the whole album!

Damn, who had time to check this yesterday :( is this available anywhere else, I'd love to hear it.

[RobRoy286]

Wait, wait, wait...

How have I never heard of "Lose What's Left?" Up until now, I thought All Birds Say was Carl's only other album. I can't find a download of Lose What's Left anywhere, not even iTunes.

halllppppp

[johnnYYac]

Its been available for free, but the existing links are dead or "risky", so I've uploaded a zip file of Lose What's Left to my personal Mediafire account.

Thank you!

Crazy I've never heard of this.

[parkervb]

ugh, once again doing a pre-sale means I don't get my album when it's released. Lucky for me though I have a connect who has a connect at local public radio who got me a digital copy.
