Bowerbirds return in 2012 with a new album. "The Clearing" will be album number three and will be released on March 6 on Dead Oceans. The new album was recorded with Brian Joseph in Wisconsin's treasured new studio, April Base, and with the help of some righteous microphones in a tiny, battered North Carolina cabin. It was mixed by Nicolas Vernhes in New York's Rare Book Room. The track available for preview is a thing of beauty.
