Devendra Banhart’s sixth album, What Will We Be, hits stores October 27th 2009. A follow-up to 2007’s Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon, the new album promises to deliver the same indie-folk sound the singer-songwriter has been known for ever since his debut back in 2002.
In support of the new album release, Banhart will also briefly hit the road this fall, embarking on a two-week North American tour that begins November 16th in Chicago .
Where Will We Be, Banhart’s label debut for Warner Brothers, was recorded in a sleepy Northern California town throughout the Spring of 2009 co-produced by Devendra and Paul Butler (from UK outfit Band Of Bees).
The international media’s acclaim and the size of his audience both at home and abroad earned by his debut Oh Me Oh My The Way The Day Goes By The Sun Is Setting Dogs Are Dreaming Lovesongs Of The Christmas Spirit was impressive to begin with and has increased dramatically with each subsequent release.
