Montreal’s Ought will release their second album, Sun Coming Down, on September 18 via Constellation Records. The first single from the record is the seven-minute “Beautiful Blue Sky” which you probably heard live if you saw the band in concert in the last year or so. Stream it, and another song “Men For Miles,” below.

Seeing them live is usually what really makes people Ought fans, as singer/guitarist Tim Darcy’s onstage charisma is hard to ignore. They’ll be on tour this fall, with two NYC shows: Mercury Lounge on October 1 and Silent Barn Secret Project Robot on October 2. (Moved from Silent Barn following venue damages.) Tickets for Mercury Lounge go on sale Friday (7/31) at noon with an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (7/29) at noon. No advance tix for Silent Barn.

All dates are listed, along with new album art/tracklist and song streams, below…
