Carl Broemel of My Morning Jacket released his new solo LP 4th of July today via Stocks in Asia/Thirty Tigers. In anticipation of the release, the album was pre-streamed on Pandora this week and is now available in both physical and digital formats. Broemel has also shared a music video for track “Sleepy Lagoon”. Premiered on Consequence of Sound, the visual accompaniment offers serene imagery highlighting the track which Consequence of Sound describes as “a slow rolling psychedelic number”.
Watch ‘Sleepy Lagoon’:
Co-produced by Teddy Morgan, the album features fellow My Morning Jacket members Bo Koster and Tom Blankenship, with Koster co-writing a few tracks. Additional guest appearances include Neko Case, Laura Veirs, Russ Pollard, Shelly Colvin, Richard Medek, and Jordan Caress. Recorded between album and tour cycles, 4th of July is a reflective meditation. It examines the passage of time marveling at how different our lives look now from the engrained images of ourselves that we’ve held onto from the past.
Broemel will be taking the new album on tour starting this weekend with a special week of release shows in Nashville and Louisville and a full solo tour to follow. Additionally, tickets are on sale now for a new string of dates that have been added with Dave Simonett of Trampled by Turtles. Baeble has also shared a live session of Carl Broemel performing tracks from the new album in Brooklyn.
