The first three songs are our vision of rock and roll. A madness that overtakes your mind and body. It's wanting to go somewhere you've never been, knowing you're on your way. The second side is acoustic guitar as open wound, a troubled mind on display. Emotional in a different way, tender like a bruise. It includes “The Refugee,” my first song entirely concerned with my Jewish background and present, a song dedicated to my grandfather who fled the Nazis as well as to all of the refugees desperate for a home today.

 

We dedicate this record to refugees of all kinds, all over the world. May all the wanderers find the homes they seek, and and may those with power welcome them as fellow citizens of humanity.

 

Ezra Furman will be playing the below UK headline shows and festivals over the next few months. Support at the Roundhouse comes from none other than Charlotte Church with her Late Night Pop Dungeon show in which she gives her MK Ultra treatment to the greatest tunes that time forgot, and others that will forever haunt our collective memory.
