The Sylvan Esso-Mountain Man-Daughter of Swords universe expanded to include yet another band earlier this year, when Amelia Meath and Alexandra Sauser-Monnig announced their debut album as the A's back in June. Fruit arrives this Friday (July 15) via Psychic Hotline, and today, the pair have shared the final single from the effort.
After dropping covers of Harry Nilsson and Shelley Duvall's "He Needs Me" and DeZurik Sisters' "Why I'm Grieving," Meath and Sauser-Monnig now share two-minute soother "When I Die," featuring guest vocals from Jenn Wasner of Wye Oak.
The 10-track album — which is said to contain "lullabies, traditional ballads and rural standards ... and other music that Meath and Sauser-Monnig simply love to sing" — was co-produced by the other half of Sylvan Esso, Nick Sanborn.
Along with Wasner's contributions, the family affair also sees Alli Rogers lending her voice, with string arrangements by Gabriel Kahane, saxophone from Sam Gendel and guitar from Alan Good Parker. Notably, third Mountain Man member Molly Sarlé is absent from the record.
