Wovenhand premiered their track The song, “The Hired Hand” from their forthcoming album Star Treatment. The track is now available to stream via Soundcloud, below. Star Treatment, will be available on September 9th via Sargent House/Glitterhouse Records. Wovenhand, plays Psycho Las Vegas fest on August 26th before embarking on an extensive European tour with lablemate Emma Ruth Rundle.

Wovenhand’s current lineup includes guitarist Chuck French, bassist Neil Keener (both of Planes Mistaken For Stars) and drummer Ordy Garrison, now joined by piano/synth player Matthew Smith (Crime & The City Solution). Star Treatment was recorded at Steve Albini’s legendary Electrical Audio in Chicago with engineer Sanford Parker, who also helmed Wovenhand’s 2014 album Refractory Obdurate.

“It’s ethereal in its concept,” Edwards explains. “There are many layers, as always. I’ve been paying attention to the stars in the sky and in literature, and it’s a theme throughout the album.” He adds, “There’s more love song style on this in general, which is nice. The idea of what love is and how it’s expressed and all these different atmospheres.”
