Sub Pop Records is proud to announce the new album from Blitzen Trapper entitled American Goldwing set for a September 13th release, Beginning July 19th in Salt Lake City, Blitzen Trapper will head out on a North American headlining tour and introduce their new material to fans. Tour dates below and many more to be announced shortly.
With subjects ranging from falling in love to drug running good old boys and the final high school dance, American Goldwing is a freewheeling collection that balances the roughness of rock ‘n’ roll with fateful heartfelt loss. "It’s me trying to evoke a true American nostalgia" explains lead singer and songwriter Eric Earley. "My vision and focus while writing our new album was on the inescapable past" Eric adds. "It’s about those feelings of being trapped in a small town. That fine line between the rural and the suburban settings that define much of America, that line between love and loss that occurs when you find yourself taking it too easy and sticking around a lonesome town for far too long."
