Bonny Light Horseman have announced the release of a new album, Rolling Golden Holy, which will be out on October 7 via 37d03d. They have also announced a tour and have shared the album’s lead single, “California.” Listen to the new song and view the album’s tracklist/cover art along with the full list of tour dates below.

In a press release, band member Eric D. Johnson (also of Fruit Bats) elaborates on the new single: “This one started off as a little crooked minor-key old timey tune. Then the three of us took it through the ringer together and it became what you’re hearing now. We sat in a room in the woods of New York and clawed and pawed at it until it turned into a little bittersweet shuffler. Our first record was largely centered on the old world, whether it was some sort of mythical sweeping landscape on some British Isle, or maybe the old cities of the American East. This is probably our first West Coast song. It’s a sad one, a story about pulling up roots, new beginnings, goodbyes, early morning long drives, riding into the sunrise instead of the sunset. They usually don’t end movies riding into the sunrise but this movie has that scene.”

Rolling Golden Holy was produced by the band’s Josh Kaufman, who is also a member of Muzz (read our interview with them).
