The Entrance Band frontman Guy Blakeslee is following 2014’s Ophelia Slowly with a new album of instrumental guitar music, The Middle Sister, on January 15 via Leaving Records. Side A is all acoustic and improvised, and side B is all electric and “more experimental.” You can listen to some clips and pre-order the record over at the Stones Throw webstore and listen to the 10-minute “Halcyon Movement 2” off the acoustic side, below.

Guy begins a tour in support of the album in Philly on release day, and he eventually hits NYC on January 18 at Baby’s All Right with J.R. Bohannon. Tickets for that show are on sale now. All dates are listed below.
