After teasing a surprise song drop, Clementine Was Right has officially released their new track, “Meet Me In The Dark.” Self-described “yokel fuzz” act also previously released “There Are No More Almond Trees,” “River Boys,” and “Takes Tall Walks.” All four tracks are set to appear on their newly-announced forthcoming record Tell Yourself You’re Going Home, which is slated for release on May 10.
If you’re new to the Clementine Was Right fandom, know that the band is much more than Denver-based poets Mike Young and Gion Davis. The project includes 30 people across the country who contributed to Tell Yourself You’re Going Home. Young opted to incorporate at least one cameo from each person who’s inspired his art thus far. In fact, the header photo above reveals a photo collage by Jordan Altergott and is said to include every person, van, and ocean in the Clementine Was Right collective.
