There's been a lot of excitement built up around the upcoming Constantines reunion, but before that happens, frontman Bry Webb is releasing his second solo album, Free Will.
Recorded at Kensington Market in Toronto, this album features backing band the Providers, which includes Nathan Lawr (Minotaurs) on drums, Anna Ruddick (Ladies of the Canyon) on bass, Aaron Goldstein (Lee Harvey Osmond) on pedal steel and Rich Burnett on guitar and lap steel.
Free Will contains 10 songs and two bonus cuts, one of which is "Someplace I'm Supposed To Be," a song commissioned for This American Life's "Coincidences" episode.
Webb is set to play nine dates in the U.S. with Chad VanGaalen, and the Constantines will play the Arts & Crafts Field Trip festival on June 8. He will be playing plenty of other shows around North American as well—you can check out his website to find out more information.
The album will be released on May 20 on Idée Fixe Records. Pre-order here. Listen to the full album stream above.
