Having joined Fleet Foxes and digitally re-released his catalog to capitalize on the attendant interest, J. Tillman returns this fall with his sixth solo release. It’s titled Year In The Kingdom. Which also happens to be about the period of time Tillman’s been drumming and harmonizing for Robin Pecknold’s troupe. The lovely first single “Earthly Bodies” is a nice look at the ways Tillman’s brand of harmonized folk overlaps with that of his day job’s, and the airy and intimate ways it’s distinct. Worth a listen:
Year In The Kingdom is out 9/22 via Western Vinyl. Hear the title track and another new one “Though I Have Wronged You” at MySpace.

wasn’t everyone so ‘about fleet foxes’ at the end of 2k8? So, no one gives a shit any more?
Seriously though. It’s similar to everyone going nuts about Grizzly Bear and totally giving Department of Eagles the finger last year.
fuck anybody who gave department of eagles the finger. that is a great album.
Go to youtube and watch his video for Seven States Across. It’s lovely.
