Laura Veirs announces new album

laura veirs plus band

Acclaimed lady of music Laura Veirs - that's her, there, plus band - is to release her sixth album, Saltbreakers, next month via Nonesuch.

According to the powers that be, "Veirs remains fascinated by the natural world, filling her work with images of the ocean and the stars. But she digs even deeper this time, incorporating the turbulence of her own life and the larger world into this collection of songs".

Saltbreakers is released on March 26, preceded by a single, 'Don't Lose Yourself', on March 19.

Seattle-based Veirs has previously been compared to Kate Bush and Joni Mitchell. She looks like she should be a teacher. In Ohio or some place. Not Seattle.

    Carbon Glacier was amazing, I liked Year Of Meteors but i'm hoping this one will be up there with the former.

    • closer to

        hopefully itll be more carbon glacier than year of meteors. i like my laura veirs like i like my diet coke, frosty and cold

  • now

    that's a good news...

    • nice

      her last album was sublime! didn';t realise she had more though, getting slack in my older age

  • Hooray!

    Really looking forward to this. I've got her last three albums and I've liked each one more and more as she's progressed.

    Also she looks spookily exactly like a friend of mine. It's a freakily close likeness.
