The Leisure Society Stream New Album In Full Ahead Of Release

The Leisure Society have made their new album available to stream in full a week ahead of its release.
'The Fine Art of Hanging On’, the British folk troupe's fourth album, is due out April 13 on Full Time Hobby. Discussing the new record, frontman Nick Hemming said:
"‘The Fine Art of Hanging On’ is a recurrent, linking theme, although this wasn’t an intentional concept album. It’s about clinging to something - be that a relationship, a career, or life itself."
"All the way through writing the album a friend of mine was battling cancer. I reached out by sending him the rough demos of this album. By giving him this access to the work in progress and by him giving feedback, we formed a close bond. Sadly he lost his battle, but his input and presence is there in the album.”
