Fresh Blood is set to drop March 10th with a series of live shows in NYC and Europe, but you can get sample of the first new track in the video below:

Released on Domino Records, Fresh Blood is White’s first new album since 2012’s Big Inner, which received stellar reviews from folks around the world. Originally issued on White’s own label, Spacebomb Records, Big Inner‘s success eventually led to a deal with UK label Domino, who gave the album an expanded reissue in 2013. The additional tracks from the reissue of Big Inner were also released as a 5-song EP, Outer Face.

The cover photo for Fresh Blood (top image) was taken in White’s grandma’s house. Adorbs.

03 Fruit Trees
