Bad Books, a collaboration between Kevin Devine and Manchester Orchestra will release their sophomore album II on October 9. II was recorded at Favorite Gentlemen Studios in Atlanta, GA and was produced by Devine, Manchester Orchestra’s lead singer Andy Hull, and Bad Books/Manchester Orchestra guitarist Robert McDowell. Rob Schnapf, well known for his work on Elliott Smith’s seminal recordings XO and Either/Or, lent his talent to mixing the album.
Today Triple Crown and Favorite Gentleman Records launch a physical pre-order for the album in conjunction with the debut of the latest single off the album, “It Never Stops.” This October Bad Books will hit the road for tour dates across the United States. See below for complete list of dates.
