The supremely talented M. Ward will be releasing a new album on February 17, 2009. "Hold Time" is the name and Merge Records will once again have the honour of giving us some more Ward magic. There will be some great guest performers as well. Lucinda Williams, Jason Lytle, formerly of Grandaddy, DeVotchka's Tom Hagerman and She & Him mate Zooey Deschanel. If it's as good as "Post-War" then we are in for a treat.
