Lord Huron

‘Strange Trails’, the highly anticipated new album from Lord Huron will be released on April 6th through Play It Again Sam. ‘Strange Trails’ is the follow-up to Lord Huron’s debut ‘Lonesome Dreams’, which gained widespread critical acclaim and acknowledgment in the year end ‘best ofs’ in 2012

The new record was written and produced by frontman Ben Schneider and recorded at the band’s own Whispering Pines studio in Los Angeles. Strange Trails is an anthology of weird fiction—a new collection of tales from the world introduced on Lonesome Dreams. Schneider explains, “There's no direct narrative connection between the two albums. The stories here are separated by time, location and characters. Many of the themes have carried over and evolved.”

Originally a musical and visual solo project by Michigan-native-turned-Angeleno Schneider, members now include Mark Berry (percussion, vocals), Miguel Briseno (bass, percussion) and Tom Renaud (guitar, vocals). After a pair of EP’s, their debut album ‘Lonesome Dreams’ was released in 2012, followed by extensive touring commitments stateside including festival appearances at the likes of Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Firefly Music festival.

Lord Huron will be undertaking a short series of live shows in Europe including dates in the UK and Ireland this spring.
