Psychedelic alt-country vets Beachwood Sparks are back and have announced Across The River Of Stars, their first album in 12 years, which will be out July 19 via Curation Records. Original members Chris Gunst (guitar/vocals), Brent Rademaker (bass/vocals), and Farmer Dave Scher (lap steel/keys/vocals), along with newer members Ben Knight (guitar), Jen Cohen Gunst (keys/guitar) and Andres Renteria (drums) made the album with producer Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes.
The first single from the album is “Torn in Two,” which finds Beachwood Sparks’ signature sun-dappled, Byrdsy brand of country rock in fine form. Check out the video below.
Beachwood Sparks will also be on tour this year and will play NYC’s Mercury Lounge on August 1 (tickets on sale soon). All dates are listed below.
