Steve Gunn is releasing a new album, Other You, this Friday via Matador. Now he has shared its fourth single, “Circuit Rider.” Listen below, followed by his upcoming tour dates, including some newly announced UK and EU dates.

When Other You was announced Gunn shared two singles from it: title track “Other You” (via an animated video) and “Reflection.” “Other You” was one of our Songs of the Week. Then he shared its third single, “Fulton.”

Other You is the follow-up to 2019’s The Unseen In Between. Rob Schnapf (Beck, Elliott Smith, Cass McCombs, Kurt Vile) produced the album, which was recorded at his Mant Studios in Los Angeles. The sessions featured longtime friend and collaborator Justin Tripp. The album also features Juliana Barwick, Mary Lattimore, Bridget St. John, Jeff Parker, Bill MacKay, Ben Bertrand, drummer Ryan Sawyer (TV On The Radio, Thurston Moore, Gang Gang Dance), and others.

Gunn had this to say about the album in a previous press release: “I came up with this title when we were recording vocals and Rob was very into harmonies. There was a third part and I just couldn’t find the note. I couldn’t vocalize it. He went in and took my voice and put it into his computer program, then he could playback and ‘sing’ the note with my voice using the computer. And he said, ‘Sing to the other you.’ So I was singing along to myself singing a note I couldn’t sing.”
