Small Black is releasing a remix EP of songs from 2015’s Best Blues which will be out November 4 via Jagjaguwar. Among those taking on the project is former tourmate Bayonne, who turns the upbeat “No One Wants It to Happen to You” it into something much more featherlight. “It was really the first time I ever attempted to truly remix something, so it was a hefty start for me in the beginning,” says Roger (Bayonne). “For some reason, after I got off touring with them in the spring I felt way more comfortable working on it to completion. It was so much fun and a great learning experience.” That remix premieres in this post and you can stream it below.

Both Bayonne and Small Black are on tour this fall. Bayonne plays ACL Fest this weekend and will then be out with El Ten Eleven, a tour that hits the NYC area at Port Chester’s Garcias @ Capitol Theatre on November 6 (tickets) and Brooklyn’s Music Hall of Williamsburg on November 12 (tickets).

Small Black, meanwhile, will be out with Wild Nothing and that tour hits Brooklyn venue Warsaw on November 14 (tickets).
