The new set was recorded in the band's own backyard, at Nashville, TN's Blackbird Studios, and features production work from longtime collaborators and famed producers/mixers Angelo Petraglia and Jacquire King, as well as the Kings of Leon themselves.
The quartet -- Followill brothers Caleb (lead vocals/rhythm guitar), Nathan (drums), and Jared (bass), plus cousin Matthew Followill (lead guitar) -- recently wrapped an East Coast jaunt opening for Pearl Jam, and will cross the Atlantic for a string of European dates this summer. The outfit's next U.S. appearance will be Aug. 9 at New Jersey's All Points West Festival at Liberty State Park.
