The Polyphonic Spree have announced Salvage Enterprise, their first new album of original songs in a decade, which will be out November 17 via Good Records. Founder Tim DeLaughter calls this a “rising from the ashes” record. “There’s an acoustic current running through the whole body of work, and we tried to embrace it as a thread. It has a lot of space to contemplate what we’re going through. I was very specific on instrumentation. I knew I wanted a cross between a Percy Faith and Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young record. With the ability of The Spree to have crescendos, peaks, valleys, we were able to add depth and texture to the classic harmonies and rich folk music.”
The first single is “Galloping Seas” which opens the album. “We’re all galloping through rough waters,” DeLaugher says. “I tried to describe the process as well as I could and encourage people to keep their heads above the storm and the waves. Ride it out. It’s going to be okay. It starts off very calm and introspective, and you can envision where it’s going.” Listen below.
The Polyphonic Spree will be playing shows in Texas this fall, including their annual Holiday Extravaganza in Dallas. All dates are listed below.
