A Lot Like Birds have released a music video for their new track “Trace the Lines” (ft. Conor Murphy of Foxing), a continuation of the story that began with “The Sound Of Us,” which recently premiered via Noisey. “Trace the Lines” is the latest single from the band’s forthcoming album DIVISI, which will be released on May 5th, 2017 via Equal Vision Records. Pre-orders for the album are available now and can be purchased, here: alotlikebirds.merchnow.com.
“‘Trace the Lines’ features our first ever guest vocalist. I wrote the string arrangement and intro to the song around the time when Foxing’s Dealer came out, and both Matt and I were jamming it heavily. When it came time to write vocals for it, we both had the thought that the part fit Conor’s voice perfectly,” guitarist Michael Franzino shares. “I had a mutual friend with him who connected us and it all fell into place. Conor is way talented; we’re very grateful for him making the trek out to Cali to make it happen.”
In support of the new album, A Lot Like Birds will be embarking on a North American headline tour this spring with Household, Hearts Like Lions, and OWEL. The tour kicks off in Albuquerque on April 25th, with VIP ticket packages, including an exclusive acoustic performance, available now, here: Alotlikebirds.soundrink.com.
