Tiny Vipers Set to Release Life On Earth

Touring Schedule, free download, the works.

Jesy Fortino, the Seattle-ite who goes by Tiny Vipers, is set to release her newest album on Sub-Pop Records on July 7th.  Given Sub-Pop's impeccable record of bringing nothing but quality to the zeitgeist, Life On Earth should be a combination of beautiful melodies and heart-wrenching sentiment that goes further than your typical "folk" music.  As the New York Times says, "She’s not telling stories; she’s after incantation and trance.”

Care to hear for yourself?  The good folks up in the Northwest have a free download, "Dreamer," for you off of the new album (right click the song title, save-as).

Have a look at her touring schedule below and catch up with a truly honest and transfixing performer.
