Brown Horse have today announced details of their second album, All The Right Weaknesses. The eagerly awaited follow-up to the six-piece Norwich-based country rock band’s critically acclaimed debut, Reservoir will be out April 4th on Loose Music.
‘Corduroy Couch’ is the first single to be taken from the album, and songwriter Nyle Holihan comments “the song draws from a couple of sources, the most literal being my memory as a young teenager in the attic listening to worn out Talking Heads and R.E.M. tapes on my parents’ big old beige sofa. Hopefully, some of the angular fuzziness of those albums carries through. I also took a lot of inspiration from the great short stories in Joy Williams’ ‘The Visiting Privilege.’ She writes with amazing precision and communicates mood and atmosphere incredibly visually despite the sparseness of her prose. I tried to emulate a little of that in the verses.”
The single comes accompanied by a great video directed by Alistair Nicholls.
To coincide with the release of the album, Brown Horse will set out on a 10-date tour of the UK in April this year.
