He’s dropping/announcing something tomorrow. New EP? Live album?

Someone suggested live album from the Asbury Park show(s?) which would be fucking awesome

He has a live stream going tonight, so I am sure whatever he has to announce he will during that.

the live album is up for preorder on apple music and rosa & reseda has been released as a single. the announcement is perfunctory at this point. exciting stuff though

Is this a video recording too or just a live cd?

Live stream he just did said the live album should be released July 30th, but he is hoping to get it moved up. He also played 3 covers: frighted rabbit, bright eyes and death cab. It was great. Still up on Riot Fest’s instagram live if you would like to check it out.

This album takes me places I never have been before. The imagery in the lyrics and story is incredible. Can't wait to hear the live album either

@moose I assume you have heard the lp and ep prior to this? They are on the exact same level.

Yep. I listened to this album before those two though. They are all really great. One night I just listened to the three releases with the lyrics right next to me and read along, which was a good experience.

Nice. The debut came out my sophomore college summer and it was definitely my most listened to album then. good times.

Man, if i discovered this while I was in college. That would have been awesome! I didn't really start listening to TWY and Aaron West until halfway through last year. But it's still had a pretty big impact in me even over the last half year.

the live album is so good. i was there for night 2 but the crowd was so loud and energetic that i missed a lot of nuance in the band's playing

Yeah, it was a great quality recording. Love how I could hear everything. Now you have the experience and can hear the nuances.

If you guys like The Wonder Years and Aaron West, I think you are bound to like The Smith Street Band and Wil Wagner's solo material. They aren't incredibly similar, but there is something about their songwriting that I have always found really alike.

Almost finished, honestly this is super nice. Loving it. Somehow I didn’t realize how similar to an Aaron West album this would feel. Very acoustic/folk/americana.

^ I am going to listen today, but my expectations are a bit low that it is all gunna sound very samey ... one of the singles basically sounded like a lesser version of 'You in January' (chorus melody included) and given that the entire album is 'love songs he wrote based on other peoples stories' I anticipate very similar sentiments throughout the whole album.



EDIT: My example is listen to 'Flight No. 5' right after listening to 'You in January' (the burst & Decay version)
