The Staves have unveiled a new track taken from their forthcoming new album If I Was which is due for release on 23rd March. Listen to Steady below on which you can clearly hear how they have changed since their 2012 debut. They are approaching their music with a new found confidence that has no doubt built with their own experience and frustration that has come from their relentless touring. Something they’ve been very honest about when talking about what has shaped their new album.
The album was recorded over five trips to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and produced by Justin Vernon (of Bon Iver). We featured a video on the making of the album which you can watch here.
The band are head out on a full UK & Ireland tour in Feb, including London’s Hackney Empire on 12th February. Tickets are on sale now via www.thestaves.com/live.html
