New Midtown Dickens album out today, new single released

Midtown Dickens' much anticipated new album, Home, is out today on Trekky Records. To celebrate the release, the album's new single "Walk, Don't You Run" is now available from Trekky Records. The song displays an uncanny unity between songwriters Catherine Edgerton and Kym Register, each strumming together and joining their voices as one, ruminating on the virtues of patience and the power of nostalgia.

"Walk, Don't You Run" is the third glimpse into Midtown Dickens' gorgeous meditations on the themes of home (both literal and abstract), family (blood and chosen) and space (within us and about us), following MTV Hive's debut of "Cross My Heart" and NPR Music's debut of "Only Brother".

Home is Midtown Dickens' third album, which is out now in Trekky Records' signature 3-part package, including an LP, CD and digital download. You can order the album now from the Trekky Records Online Store. NPR has already claimed that Home is "the North Carolina band's most nuanced and beautifully produced album yet", and Shuffle Magazine states that "leaps don’t come any bigger or bolder than the one Durham’s Midtown Dickens makes on Home". The band has also announced a US tour in support of Home, including shows with Retribution Gospel Choir, Wooden Wand, and a stop at Portland's celebrated Pickathon Festival. Dates below:
