Oh hey. I have a new album coming out on August 26th called "Stay Gold" and it's awesome. I don't know. I'm getting bad at doing these personal bio things because I don't know what to say that doesn't just sound like a bunch of overhyped drivel. All I can say is.. I'm really enjoying listening to this record LOUD. I don't know. The last record was a lot of songs about the death of my Father and it was a beautiful process to go through. But coming out of that, and into a feeling of almost "celebration", I felt the need to write it and record it. It's a drunken trip down memory lane for sure.
North America, you can also NOW pre-order the album on iTunes (and get the song instantly) (

“East Coast Girl” and digital album preorders will be available for the rest of the world (except Europe) by Friday midnight local time.
And last but certainly not least, Europe, digital album preorders and streaming will be available for you on iTunes, Spotify, etc. very soon but you can still watch “East Coast Girl” on Youtube now and also preorder the CD/Vinyl in the webstore now (

There's a lot of songs from this thing I can't wait to play live on tour... Speaking of…

So johnnie tell me that you're alrightI wanna cover you up tonightGimme one more Chance to show you something real You can run but you can't hideIt's a cruel cruel summer outside Shine on little baby, you're too good for this worldjust another broken east coast girl
There's a guy on Lincoln Blvd Where I buy my medication I wake up after 3hrs but fall asleep, mid conversation I'm pretty sure it's a habit But I'll talk myself out of that one too You were always good at talking us out of trouble with the cops Made everyone feel good about the fact that they were not I wanna go back in time and find that perfect moment for you So johnnie tell me that you're alrightI wanna cover you up tonight Give me one more Chance to show you something real You can run but you can't hide It's a cruel cruel summer outside Shine on little baby, you're too good for this worldEverybody's all American girl
