BC Camplight has returned with details of his new album Shortly After Takeoff, which arrives with the lead single "Back To Work".
"Back To Work" is BC Camplight's first new single since his 2018 album Deportation Blues.
BC Camplight, aka Brian Christinzio, says of his new album, "This is an examination of madness and loss. I hope it starts a long overdue conversation."
He adds, "It’s important to stress that this isn’t a redemption story. I'm a guy who maybe lives a little hard and I’m in the thick of some heavy stuff. But as a result, I think I've made my best record."
Tracklist:
- I Only Drink When I’m Drunk
- Ghosthunting
- Back To Work
- Cemetery Lifestyle
- I Want To Be In The Mafia
- Shortly After Takeoff
- Arm Around Your Sadness
- Born To Cruise
- Angelo
"Back To Work" is out now. BC Camplight's Shortly After Takeoff album arrives 24 April via Bella Union, and is available to pre-order now. He plays London's O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on 26 November. Tickets go on sale tomorrow (24 January) from 9am. Find out more.
