Purchase includes CD Insert signed by The Backseat Lovers.
Salt Lake City-based indie band The Backseat Lovers make their major label debut with “Growing/Dying” – their first new music in over two years. The track is the first single from their new album, Waiting to Spill.
Whereas their debut album When We Were Friends was, for pragmatic reasons, a collection of songs, the band conceived Waiting to Spill as a collective body of work. David Greenroom (Paul McCartney, Beck, Cage the Elephant) produced and mixed the new album.
“When We Were Friends was our first attempt at making an album, and it was essentially recording one song, selling some t-shirts at a show the next month, and being able to record another song,” recall The Backseat Lovers. “Upon finishing it, we were quickly filled with a strong desire to make something that really flowed together, with each song intentionally placed, creating a cohesion that spans the whole record. Overall though, Waiting to Spill really feels like a continuation, the next chapter of our lives.”
Joshua Harmon, Jonas Swanson, KJ Ward & Juice Welch – who comprise The Backseat Lovers – met while in high school and finished up their first EP, Elevator Days, just before graduation.
