Kevin Morby
“Javelin”
Dead Oceans

Kevin Morby has announced a new album. Little Wide Open is produced by the National’s Aaron Dessner and features contributions from—among others—Justin Vernon, Muna’s Katie Gavin, Sylvan Esso’s Amelia Meath, and Lucinda Williams. It’s out May 15 on Dead Oceans.

“This is a song I wrote about being in love with someone you keep circling around the globe, relentlessly traveling through the air and down highways, and then returning home alone to middle America,” Morby said of (lead single) “Javelin” in a press statement. -Pitchfork
