Tigers Jaw today share ‘Ghost,’ the gripping and soaring latest single previewing the band’s anticipated new album ‘Lost on You’ due out on 27th March via Hopeless Records. “The genesis of ‘Ghost’ was a chance run-in with a person I grew up with,” vocalist and guitarist Ben Walsh explains. “A run-in that would have been warm, welcomed and cherished at one point in my life held no significance after the slow steady passage of time and growing apart. The quick flash of memories with this person felt like a glimpse into a past life, or like seeing a ghost. Some people don’t stay in your life forever and that’s OK, but it’s very interesting which memories get dredged up when you see a once familiar face.”
The band of Walsh (guitar, vocals), Brianna Collins (keys, vocals), Mark Lebiecki (guitar), Colin Gorman (bass), and Teddy Roberts (drums) also announced an extensive U.S. spring tour following their performance at Boston’s Something in the Way Festival later this month. See below for details.
‘Ghost’ follows lead single ‘Head is Like a Sinking Stone,’ released in early December to praise and support from Kerrang!, BBC Radio 1 Rock Show, Rolling Stone (Songs You Need to Know), Alternative Press, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, The Needle Drop, and more. ‘Lost on You’ is available for pre-order HERE.
‘Lost on You’ – produced/engineered by their longtime collaborator Will Yip (Turnstile, Movements) at his famed Studio 4 in Philadelphia – is a continuation of what we’ve always loved about Tigers Jaw. There’s the powerful and pounding rhythm section, the great melodic leads that shift from instrument to instrument, and, as always, the interchanging and overlapping vocals. And while this record is decidedly from the present, it is deeply embedded in their history. There are many moments that would feel just as at home sung along to at the defunct Scranton venue Test Pattern as they would in the huge halls of Philadelphia’s Union Transfer, a venue probably ten-times as large, that they are now able to sell out. This is not surprising. The scene’s present moment owes a lot to Tigers Jaw; their contributions have helped pave the way for this entire world, and still the group continues on.
