Pete Yorn to Release Back and Fourth on June 23
And assembles an all-star cast in the process.
Pete Yorn considered his first three albums to be part of a trilogy, so this fourth album (entitled Back and Fourth) is some sort of musical rebirth for the singer songwriter. Yorn's label (Columbia Records) wasted no expense on this musical endeavor, either - Yorn recorded with producer Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, Rilo Kiley) and had the entire project looked over by Rick Rubin.
Appearing on the album is drummer Joey Waronker (Beck), pianist/arranger Nate Wolcott (Bright Eyes, The Faint, Rilo Kiley), guitarist Jonny Polonsky, bassist Joe Karnes (John Cale) and backing vocalist Orenda Fink (Azure Ray). Quite the way to set up a new "musical chapter" in your career.
Look for Yorn on tour in 2009, and also look for some new music. He plans to release some more stuff later in the year.
