Modern Outsider Signs Brass Bed, Readies New Single & Album

September 29, 2015

Brass Bed has recently put the finishing touches on their 4th LP, In the Yellow Leaf, and are proud to announce their new label partners - Modern Outsider out of Austin, Texas. Though it won’t see the light of day until Spring ’16, ModOut will release the first single off Yellow Leaf on Oct. 30!

The single's A-side "I Am Just a Whisper" is easily the most frenetic, anxiety-inducing jangle thrasher Brass Bed's ever produced. They tracked the rave-up with their old pal / engineer Danny Reisch (also an Austin product) and featured Ben "Benjo" Jones of Generationals and Youth Lagoon on guitar.

Then kick over to the B-side to hear their scuzzed out cover of Gene Thomas's "Sometimes", a swamp pop standard by way of Flamin' Groovies that they tracked with Chris Woodhouse (Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall) in Sacramento, CA.

In the Yellow Leaf follows Brass Bed’s critically acclaimed 2013 release, The Secret Will Keep You, which landed on NPR’s All Songs Considered 10 Best of the Year!
