Danielson are releasing the Snap Outtavit EP on September 28 via Joyful Noise. Its title track, “Snap Outtavit,” was one of our Songs of the Week. Now they have shared another song from the EP, “On Purpose,” via a very colorful video directed by Jad Fair. Watch it below.

The Snap Outtavit EP is the band’s first release in seven years, since 2011’s Best of Gloucester County. Daniel Smith fronts Danielson and his band for this EP mainly consists of family members, including his sisters Megan (bells, vocals) and Rachel (keys, vocals), and brothers Andrew and David (drums), with his wife Elin (vocals), as well as various kids in the family on vocals. Famed producer Kramer (aka Mark Kramer) recorded the EP.

A previous press release described the EP as such: “Like in ecstatic religious poetry of another time, the new Danielson songs, on this EP, tackle the spiritual struggles of the everyday - growing older, having kids, momentarily losing hope, for which the route to salvation is music itself, the playing, the singing, the writing of music, and the listening to it as well.”
