Seattle-based quintet Minus the Bear are currently hard at work on their highly anticipated fourth studio album, still untitled. Excited to expand on their inimitable brand of rock n roll
songwriting and explore their existing love of audio ingenuity, the band teamed up with Grammy Award winning producer Joe Chicarelli (My Morning Jacket, The White Stripes) to lend a helping hand. Loved for their brilliant countermelodies and progressive arrangements by legions of fans, the band plans on taking their endless creativity and craft, which has been praised by the likes of
Spin,
Alternative Press,
Paste and others, to new heights on this new album.
Minus the Bear will take the opportunity to self finance their new album, giving them full control in an evolving industry. The band plans on
releasing their new album on a yet to be announced record label.
The band recently released a seven track EP,
ACOUSTICS, which was available exclusively online and on their recent
headlining tour which included sold out dates at New York's Webster Hall, Chicago's The Vic and The Gothic Theatre in Denver.
