Tulsa’s Carter Tanton just emailed me his new single, “St. Paul,” from his as-yet-untitled-album. He co-produced the track with Brian Deck [Califone, Iron & Wine] and it features members of Drug Rug. It’s an upbeat rock song, which is a departure from his hauntingly beautiful and dark EP, I Was Submerged. Tanton said, “I think a lot of great rock songs are not meant for the mind and therefore are best kept simple and immediate. Brian and I fought every temptation to layer the hell out of it, as much of the record is layered.”

Look for a new Tulsa album of outtakes and live tracks in July.
