Delta Spirit Sign with Dine Alone for 'Into the Wide,' Announce North American Tour

BY Alex HudsonPublished Jun 25, 2014

Rootsy rockers Delta Spirit have already announced that their upcoming album Into the Wide will be coming out on the U.S. through Dualtone Records, and now they have a Canadian deal to go along with it. Into the Wide will be out north of the border on September 9 through Dine Alone Records.

The California-bred band spent a year writing the album in their windowless studio in their current home base of Brooklyn. Multi-instrumentalist Kelly Winrich said in a statement, "That sense of feeling trapped in our studio and in the city definitely gave the album more of a weight than our previous records and played a big part in this being our moodiest recording yet."

The final product was eventually recorded during a live-off-the-floor session with Ben Allen (Animal Collective, Deerhunter) in Atlanta's Maze Studios. According to a press release, the producer "helped breathe new life and brighter energy into the songs while still capturing the claustrophobia of their creative writing space."
