BC Camplight announces sobriety-focused album and releases new duet 'Two Legged Dog' with Abigail Morris from The Last Dinner Party.
BC Camplight has announced his new album 'A Sober Conversation', set for release via Bella Union. The band have also shared new single 'Two Legged Dog', featuring Abigail Morris from The Last Dinner Party.
The new album follows 2023's 'The Last Rotation Of Earth', which marked BC Camplight's first Top 40 record. The new release sees Brian Christinzio documenting recent experiences while embracing sobriety and confronting past trauma.
"Around the time of The Last Rotation… I realised I was living in this perpetual childhood, messed up all the time, trying to free myself from responsibility and all the bad thoughts I had. It led to a kind of existential crisis… I was craving meaning, thinking about having kids… I've been running away from stuff for a long time. You can either try and achieve milestones in life or chase a dime bag - you can't do both. And I've decided not to let myself be defeated anymore," Christinzio explains.
