Tub Ring Set August Release Date For New Album

Posted in Records on June 10, 2010

Tub Ring have set “Secret Handshakes” as the title to their new album which will now land in stores on August 31st through The End. For now, band bassist Trevor Erb offered the following on the outing:

“Capturing the live energy of Tub Ring, on record, has proven to be an interesting task. This time, we succeeded in harnessing that energy, and created a rather colorful album in the process. There’s an overall vibe and sound to this record that I haven’t felt or heard before. In the span of 14 tracks we’ve created a party. Every song takes you in a different direction and you’re not going to walk down any beaten paths. It’s exciting, and it’s got a vibe to it, like no other.”

Summer touring plans will be announced shortly.
