Widowspeak announces debut on Captured Tracks, hear some songs now

Widowspeak was just a band I had never heard of before a few minutes ago. Now, I can’t wait to hear their debut LP, which will be released on Captured Tracks on August 9th. Self-titled, the ten-song set promises to show a band (Brooklyn-based, partially-Washington-bred) still in its infancy, with no ceiling on what they can possibly accomplish artistically. And, if these songs are good examples, they have already come a long way.

Look for Widowspeak’s debut this summer and check out two cuts from the record, “Harsh Realm” and “Gun Shy,” below.
