Jul 07, 2016 By Christopher Roberts Ryley Walker

Ryley Walker is releasing a new album, Golden Sings That Have Been Sung, on August 19 via Dead Oceans. Previously he shared its first single, “The Halfwit in Me.” Now we have another song from the album, “The Roundabout.” He’s also added some dates to his touring schedule. Listen below, followed by all his upcoming tour dates.

Golden Sings That Have Been Sung is the follow-up to 2015’s Primrose Green, an album that garnered the singer/songwriter/guitarist a slightly larger audience and more critical acclaim. The album was recorded in Chicago over the 2015 Christmas break and was produced by sometime Wilco multi-instrumentalist LeRoy Bach. “It was everything I wanted it to be,” Walker says of the sessions in a press release. “I would go to LeRoy’s house every other day with a riff, and we would take it from there.”
