Though they are still in the studio in Ojai, California and do not have an album title yet, Edward Sharpe And The Magnetic Zeros have announced a release date for their sophomore album and it is May 29th via Community Music / Vagrant.
Frontman Alex Ebert had this to say about the upcoming effort:
The making of this album has spanned a time of immense perseverance and, thankfully, co-creation. Making this album has been a test of our faith in ourselves and in the universe, and brought us closer together and in greater harmony with one another… A deluge of music has been written and recorded, and we are intensely excited to share it with anyone who wants to feel it.
The follow-up to Up From Below can be followed through the band’s Tumblr here and you can see the group in the Southwest this March. Tour dates are below.
