The Something For Kate frontman has just released his second solo LP, and now he’s revealed a national tour.
It’s been seven years since Dempsey’s first solo LP,Everything is True.After returning to Something For Kate for one album, and dropping an LP of acoustic cover versions, he reclaimed complete control and constructed his new albumStrange Loop.
Recorded late last year with Wilco producer Tom Schick in Chicago,Strange Loopuses the folk-rock stylings ofEverything is Trueas a point of departure, taking in alt-country epics, fuel guzzling belters and Replacements-like bar-room confessionals.
See Paul Dempsey launch his new record at The Metro on Friday August 19 with support from Olympia.
