Following on from last year’s solo debut album White Roses, My God Low‘s Alan Sparhawk has announced details of his second solo album. Recorded with fellow Minnesotans Trampled By Turtles, the album With Trampled By Turtles will be released by Sub Pop on May 30.
The first single to be released from the album is the opener ‘Stranger,‘ the video for which may be seen below.
The album was recorded at the end of 2023 at Pachyderm Studios in Cannon Falls, Minnesota. Alan Sparhawk came in towards the end of Trampled by Turtles’ session there, with several songs in development. Some had never worked in Low; others were fresh and waiting for the right setting. For years, the two parties had talked about making something together, but the talk was never more than hypothetical. When Sparhawk needed it most, the promise re-emerged, sharper than ever. ‘When the opportunity seems right,’ Sparhawk says, ‘you jump.’
The album tracklisting is as follows:
1. Stranger
2. Too High
3. Heaven
4. Not Broken
5. Screaming Song
6. Get Stil
7. Princess Road Surgery
8. Don’t Take Your Light
9. Torn & in Ashes
The album may be pre-ordered here, while details of Sparhawk’s live dates for the remainder of the year may be found here.
