Fang Island recording second album, touring east coast

Hopefully you haven’t forgotten Fang Island, whose debut album burst onto the scene last year to blindside listeners and critics alike with their beer chugging, hi-five inspiring anthems. Word on the street (and, you know, from their record label Sargent House) is that the band is hard at work on their follow-up LP, with no concrete release date in sight.

Ideally, the new Fang Island album will be released sooner rather than later, but complicating the issue is the fact that the quartet are taking a recording break to partake in a short tour of the east coast. Some dates support The Joy Formidable, and you can view all the currently announced dates below.
