Mark Eitzel just announced the extension of his tour with Howe Gelb in support of his first solo album in five years, titled Hey Mr Ferryman, which will be in stores on January 27. Beginning with a show in Los Angeles on the 26th, Eitzel will be bringing the songs from his new record all over the world. Listen to the beguiling new track “An Answer,” which Eitzel describes as a “goopy love song about dancing” while Stereogumdescribes it as "a romantic ballad with a grand, string-laden scope."
Hey Mr Ferryman features the vivid melodies long associated with Eitzel’s former band American Music Club—which remains a cult favorite to this day—as well as producer Bernard Butler’s distinctive guitar that serves to complement Eitzel’s expressive vocals. As both a solo artist and the frontman for AMC, he is a celebrated lyricist and champion of the downtrodden.
