Charleston, SC’s Dangermuffin will be releasing their sixth studio album Heritage this Friday, March 31st, 2017. Themes of sea, sun, and spiritual connection weave through the eight-track release combining a cohesive blend of Alt-Americana, Island grooves, Folk and Jam. In celebration of the band’s sixth release, Dangermuffin will tour throughout the spring and summer in support of the album. A full list of confirmed dates are listed below…
On Heritage, Dangermuffin reaches into their creative arsenal to craft an album showcasing the band’s signature coastal-influenced grooves melded with Americana sensibilities and Appalachian fingerpicking. The album’s lyrics contemplate the universal human connection to our ancestors, ancient traditions and symbols while yearning for humanity to get back to its roots. It is an audible showcase weaving introspective lyrics with catchy, nimble guitar riffs. Six of the eight songs were recorded acoustically adding to the album’s organic feel; and although Dangermuffin has performed as a trio for nearly a decade, the recent addition of their newest member Markus Helander of Finland on drums makes Heritage the band’s most progressive album to date. Fittingly, the album’s soaring vocals were recorded in Charleston’s historic Unitarian Church, a National Historic Landmark built in 1772.
Glide is proud to premiere Dangermuffin’s Heritage in its entirety below. Encapsulating a full array of tasteful genres along with top-shelf musicianship, its no wonder that Dangermuffin has become a festival invite favorite. The eight compositions on Heritage, reminiscent of both The Revivalists and The Head and the Heart, bring together rhythmic jewels with poignant vocals, making for the ideal summer 2017 album.
