The gifted songwriter returns with a pensive, expansive part autobiographical new album \u003ci\u003eEmpty Horses\u003c\/i\u003e. Here he’s part Townes Van Zandt, part John Prine, part Robbie Robertson at his retrospective best.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album is a meticulously observed study of America and Americana (not the music, but the state of mind).

Close up and personal, \u003ci\u003eEmpty Horses i\u003c\/i\u003es a poignant carefully etched experience, a rolling journey in modern times, nodding back to tradition, a personal snapshot filled with honesty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEmpty Horses\u003c\/i\u003e is released on vinyl LP and also a deluxe bookback CD, beautifully packed with 24 pages of paintings and lyrics by Tobin Sprout, a true collectors piece for fans of Tobin’s music and art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fire Records","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50457459654987,"sku":"1095590","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50457460539723,"sku":"1095591","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/962b00ee-4612-4f77-8738-c8f96b4cdcc5_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727205570","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/empty-horses","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
