Jesse Malin 'Outsiders' Out Today

 

JESSE MALIN'S 'OUTSIDERS,' OUT TODAY;
WATCH VIDEO FOR  "YOU KNOW IT'S DARK WHEN THE ATHEISTS START TO PRAY"
 
Jesse Malin released Outsiders his second album of 2015 today on One Little Indian / Velvet Elk Records. Malin describes Outsiders as "a record built out of optimism and disgust - one for the leavers, the believers, the hustlers and the chicken hawks who could never catch us." Born from late night recording sessions in the Pennsylvania woods with producer Don DiLego, far from any expectations, this new record presents Jesse Malin in his rawest form yet.

The first video off the album "You Know It's Dark When The Atheists Start To Pray" plays into this rawness. Shot on a hot August day in New Orleans, Malin sought out locations around the city made famous by iconic films like Easy Rider and Jim Jarmusch's Down By Law to serve as backdrops. You can watch the video here: 


Malin released his album New York Before The War to great acclaim and he will be on the road for a handful of dates in 2015. On releasing two albums in one year, Malin told the Village Voice, "There are no rules in the music business anymore. I just do what I do."
