Foy Vance has announced his second new album of the year, ‘To Memphis’.
Recorded at Sam Phillips Recording Studio in the titular city, it’s a companion to ‘From Muscle Shoals’, and due on 6th September via Ed Sheeran’s Gingerbread Man Records.
“I have always been such a massive fan of American Folk Music in all its many forms,” Vance explains. “There is a certain candidness to it. The ‘Americana’ songs proved intriguing as somewhere very old and written somewhat wryly, but a good few were songs written in the last six months that felt like they belonged to these older ones in some way.”
He’ll follow the release with a headline tour in November:
