Wild Pink Announce New EP

Following the success of their album Yolk in the Fur in 2018, the New York band are set to release a new EP in March 2019 entitled 5 Songs - featuring remixes of three existing album tracks and two unreleased songs from the album recording sessions.

Existing between the space between the understated debut album and the more expansive Yolk in the Fur which was a triumphant panoramic soundscape of an album. Featuring the hallmarks of The War on Drugs coupled with the adulation for the late Tom Petty, composer and lead guitarist John Ross could well be helping his side break for the mainstream.

Yolk in the Fur garnered much praise from many connoisseurs of rock music featuring on many a Best of 2018 list from Pitchfork to Steven Hyden.

On the EP, the remixes of album tracks in order 'There Is A Ledger', 'Love Is Better' and 'All Some Frenchman's Joke' from Shy Layers, Dondadi (side project of Connor Hanwick - sometimes member of Wild Pink) and Eerie Gaits (solo guitar project of John Ross himself). The two unreleased tracks are 'Coaches Who Cry' and 'How's The Tap Here' again showcase Ross' knack of writing subtle songs with a universality to them.

This couples with news of tour dates ranging from mid January culminating with a more expansive tour commencing in late April in Los Angeles ending in Philadelphia on May 10th. Support comes from Strand of Oaks.

Yolk in the Fur is out now from Tiny Engines.
5 Songs EP is out in March 2019 from Tiny Engines.

My thanks to Tiny Engines for the press release.
