Listen: The Besnard Lakes - 'Albatross'
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater January 14th, 2010

Here's a band you probably haven't heard anything about for a while - The Besnard Lakes. Well, fear not any more, for we have a double whammy of news relating to that very band for you. Wonderful.

Firstly, they've got a new album coming out. It's called The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night and is out March 8 through Jagjaguwar. There's a track off that very album, a single, entitled 'Albatross', which will be properly released on February 8. Click here to download that track, or stream it underneath, by clicking 'play', as you do.
