The Wave Pictures have announced today that they will release their brand new album called City Forgiveness on 21st October 2013!
Borne from 6 weeks driving around America in a small van on tour
with Allo Darlin', the result of this trip is their fifth studio album.
"We visited Hank Williams' house and Billy The Kid's grave, watched the Golden Gate bridge disappear into the clouds, and had our frisbee confiscated by a cop. We played some great shows together, and we became good friends, and we drove and we drove and we drove and we drove" explains vocalist and lyricist Dave Tattersall. Whilst they drove Tattersall scribbled in a notebook - "anything that popped into my head" and on his return found "a few hundred crumpled well-travelled pages in at the bottom of my bag."
Ten years after The White Stripes recorded Elephant at the hallowed studio, The Wave Pictures took a trip to Toe Rag to record this exclusive footage of The Woods, taken from City Forgiveness:
