The Hold Steady’s Craig Finn has announced a new solo album, Always Been. Produced by the War on Drugs’ Adam Granduciel, the follow-up to 2022’s Legacy of Rentals features guest vocals guest vocals from Kathleen Edwards and Sam Fender. It lands on April 4 Tamarac Recordings/Thirty Tigers. The rollicking lead single ‘People of Substance’ is out today alongside a music video by David Kelling. Check it out and find the album cover and tracklist below.
“I believe this to be the most narrative record I have made,” Finn said in a press release. “Most songs concern a protagonist who pursued a career as a clergyman despite a lack of faith. The record tells the story of his rise and fall and redemption, while also filling out the details of his travels and the world in which he lives. I am very proud of what we made, I hope you enjoy.”
