Four-time Grammy-nominated British artist Steven Wilson will release his third solo album via Kscope on February 25th. Titled 'The Raven That Refused To Sing (And Other Stories)', the much anticipated new album was written last year between January and July and recorded in Los Angeles in September.
The first video from the album is now online. Produced, animated and co-directed by Jessica Cope (Frankenweenie/animator, The Astronomer’s Sun/animator) and co-directed with additional animation by Simon Cartwright (The Astronomer’s Sun), the video for 'The Raven That Refused To Sing' is an animated short film based on Wilson and Hajo Müller’s own short story for the track.
The deluxe digital edition of the album, which features a bonus track, is now available to pre-order from iTunes. The bonus track is a demo version of the song 'The Holy Drinker'. A video of Steven and his band recording 'The Holy Drinker' is also currently streaming on the Kscope YouTube channel.
Steven and his band hit the road touring the new record from March 1st, beginning in the UK and moving into Europe. The tour will continue throughout 2013, visiting North America and Mexico in April and May.
