Having played the underground buzz circuit for awhile, Austin-based Peter And The Wolf will finally release their official (as in, not hand-printed) debut album, Lightness. The record is being released by the Los Angeles-based label the Workers' Institute, which previously only released Scandinavian instrumental albums by the likes of Amiina and Johann Johannson. PATW has also already embarked on the land-leg of their epic "sailboat Tour Of The East Coast," which trumps their last tour, where they played on an island that "the audience could only reach by canoe," according to their label. Sounds like our idea of a good time! Peter And The Wolf Tour Dates: 07/12 - Portland, OR - Towne Lounge 07/13 - Seattle, WA - S.S.
