White Denim Reveal Details Of New Album And Announce UK Tour

White Denim have released further details of 'Corsicana Lemonade', which is due out in the UK on November 4 via Downtown. Jeff Tweedy produced two tracks, Distant Relative Salute and A Place to Start, and the band are also set to tour the US with Tame Impala this October before hitting the UK for a full tour in November.
Five years on from their twisted translation of the garage-rock aesthetic on 'Workout Holiday', new album 'Corsicana Lemonade' announces itself less noisily and demandingly, while commanding just as much attention.
If their UK debut was the sound of a way-cool keg party, then as singer-songwriter and guitarist James Petralli sees it, their latest is “a barbeque record, essentially”. Here, then, are summery grooves with a country-funk/boogie-soul bent (Come Back, A Place To Start), classic pop-rock moves from the ’70s (Cheer Up Blues Ending, At Night In Dreams) and riff-centric, dirty blues (Let It Feel Good (My Eagles), Pretty Green).
White Denim’s frenetic workouts still feature – after all, this is the band that have always boasted serious chops – but they’re far less extended and frequent, designed to complement the newfound laid-back ease, rather than hog the spotlight.
