The New Album is Announced!
Posted by Doug on June 13, 2007
An introduction to the new album from Josh:
"I am proud to announce the upcoming release of my new record, The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter, on August 21, 2007! In North America I'm putting the record out with the help of the strong, capable hands of Sony/Victor. Come mid-September, my good friends at Independent Records will roll it out in Ireland, and V2 will sick it upon the rest of the unsuspecting world. It's only a little over two months away and it's gonna get busy. Ok, that's the business-y bit.
This record was made in the woods of interior Maine and produced by Sam Kassirer. Lyrically, musically, and in terms of production it's the most adventurous record I've made yet and I think when you hear it you're going to be surprised. Seriously, repeatedly, and in a good way.
So be forewarned! August 21st!
All the Best,
Josh"
