Brace the Wave is the Lou Barlow’s first solo album in six years and to mark its release today he unveiled an intimate, and rather lonesome, new video for Repeat which you can watch below:
According to Domino Records the album was recorded with with Justin Pizzoferrato in under a week in western Massachusetts, which Barlow now calls home after seventeen years in LA, the album is a mix of tracks that employ the songwriter’s early methods of tuning his ukelele down low and writing during the recording process (“Redeemed,” “Wave,” “Moving”) and traditional-style folk songs that he performed live in the studio (“Lazy” and “C&E”.)
