Torres is a week away from releasing her sophomore album, Sprinter, on her new label home of Partisan Records, and she’s now streaming it in full. It’s a diverse record, with PJ Harvey-style rock songs, somber folk-inspired songs, and a short divergence into eccentric pop with “Cowboy Guilt.” Check out the whole thing, over at NPR.
Torres has a tour coming up that includes two NYC shows: May 27 at Baby’s All Right with Aero Flynn (tickets) and June 26 at Mercury Lounge (tickets). No other bands announced for the Merc show yet.
