Pedro The Lion have dropped off a brand new surprise album titled ‘Havasu’ – you can listen to it below.The Seattle band – fronted by David Bazan – reformed back in 2017 and released their fifth studio album, ‘Phoenix’, two years later in 2019.
Their latest LP is the second in a series of five, each chronicling Bazan’s past homes.This time, the frontman traveled to the namesake city in Arizona to revisit the sites – junior high campus, a “magical” skating rink, the lake – that populate his memories from seventh grade and evoke feelings long suppressed.“An intersection I hadn’t remembered for 30 years would trigger a flood of hidden memories,” Bazan said in a press release. “I was there to soak in it as much as possible.”‘Havasu’ was made with co-producer and engineer Andy D.
Park, who also worked on ‘Phoenix’, and Bazan wrote, arranged, and performed most of the music himself, with help from PTL live drummer Sean T.
Lane on every track and synths from longtime collaborator Andy Fitts.Album opener ‘Don’t Wanna Move’ features the same guitar riff from PTL live guitarist Erik Walters that appeared on ‘Phoenix’ closer ‘Leaving The Galley’.“I was psyched to open this record with it,” Bazan said. “I’m trying to have a flow between the records, so if people want to engage with that, there’s something there.”You can listen to ‘Havasu’ below:Pedro The Lion are gearing up to head out on the road for a US tour in support of ‘Havasu’ this spring.
