Widowspeak's Robert Earl Thomas details debut solo LP and shares title track "Another Age"

The nine-track collection arrives after two years of work between touring, working in a woodshop in Seattle, and a hotel in the Catskills. The songs came together last winter at Marcata Recording ni New Paltz, NY, with previous collaborator Kevin McMahon (Swan, Real Estate).

The first public offering, "Another Age", sees Thomas fusing classic US rock (think Bruce Springsteen not Chuck Berry) and his own dreamier leanings from Widowspeak. It's spaced out and road weary, with introspection in spades - like the rest of the album, Thomas is looking at love, life, and loss with a microscope; this is about fragments in time, not grand, vague gestures.

Thomas says that the title track was penned "after an eye-opening visit back to New York City that felt like a chance encounter with an ex. It was kinda like a dream, exciting but uncomfortable. I guess that's what the whole record is about: looking backward and forward at the same time."

Widowspeak's latest record, Expect The Best, was released over the summer.
