A new Gillian Welch album: You heard it here second.
At last, Gil and Dave are rolling fresh tape. They've said in concerts that they make a point to expedite post-production -- meaning that once the mixes are in, it may only be a matter of weeks before we see the CD on shelves. With new songs, I'm hoping for a major shake-up of their setlist. It's a deep groove, three years worn, and frankly I'm sort of bored with it.
There's not a lot of info (and some misinfo; this will be their fifth record, not their fourth), but here is Billboard's scoop: Gillian Welch Gets Busy On New Album
Also keep an eye open for the ten-year anniversary special 2-disc edition of Revival, out within the next few weeks. It's an uncharacteristically un-iconoclastic stop-gap-filler, but that don't mean I won't grab it the day it sees the sun.
