Pittsburgh indie folk-punk act The Homeless Gospel Choir has announced plans to release a new album titled I Used To Be So Young on July 15 via Anti-Flag’s label A-F Records. The one man band, consisting of the outspoken troubadour Derek Zanetti, has debuted a new song called “Untitled” today at PunkNews.org.
Fans are invited to pre-order the album now at http://store.anti-flag.com/index.php/a-f-records-1/the-homeless-gospel-choir.html. The first 40 pre-orders will include an original drawing by Zanetti.
Stream “Untitled” now, exclusively at PunkNews.org: http://bit.ly/SYTIBI
The Homeless Gospel Choir is the Woody Guthrie of the post-hope / pre-apocalypse world that we live in today.  Zanetti is personally charged to tear down greed, privilege, and complacency, and is armed with hard truths, humor, and a worldview that every human could benefit from listening to. Produced by Chris#2, singer/bassist for Anti-Flag, I Used To Be So Young is a bold album that takes an extremely personal look at what it’s like to wake up in your 30’s, staring down the barrel of adulthood without any desire to participate in it.
Zanetti will take his message on the road this summer with Listener and ‘68 in support of I Used To Be So Young. Follow him at https://www.facebook.com/TheHomelessGospelChoir for additional updates.
