Into the Wide, the awaited fourth album from acclaimed San Diego-bred five-piece Delta Spirit, will be released September 9 via Dualtone Records. Into the Wide was born in a flood-ruined, cave-like, rat-colonized room in Delta Spirit's new hometown of Brooklyn. The band spent more than a year writing together in the windowless studio they rebuilt after Hurricane Sandy. "That sense of feeling trapped in our studio and in the city definitely gave the album more of a weight than our previous records, and played a big part in this being our moodiest recording yet," notes Kelly Winrich (multi-instrumentalist, vocals) of the experience. When it came time to record, the band relocated to Maze Studios in Atlanta and teamed up with producer Ben Allen (Animal Collective, Deerhunter), helping breathe new life and brighter energy into the songs while still capturing the claustrophobia of their creative writing space. Of the recording process, Brandon Young (drums) explains, "One of the most important things was getting back to all of us being in a room together for every single song and recording everything live."
Another great album by this incredible band. You definitely have to see them live!
