A new record from Dallas Green’s emotionally stirring project is coming. Best start preparing yourself now.
City and Colour have announced that they have a new record coming up.
It’s going to be called ‘The Love Still Held Me Near’ and will be released on March 31 via Still Records.
Dallas Green had this to say about it and where it came from:
“The Love Still Held Me Near was born out of unimaginable loss and the subsequent journey through the grief and heartache that followed,” explains Green. “It’s about digging deep down into yourself and attempting to unearth hope and light in the things that can comfort you through those times. For me that has always been writing and recording music, so that’s exactly what I did.”
