Josh Ritter’s time has surely come – once again. A cult stateside hit, the 30-year old singer/songwriter has a bright future and equally impressive past. Now, currently on his fourth critically acclaimed album, he releases the ‘Girl In The War’ mini LP on V2, November 27th.
Written by Josh and co-produced by Brian Deck, it features 7 tracks – some previously unreleased in the UK. Highlights include the striking title track with its political poise (“the only thing I know to do is turn up the music and pray that she makes it through”), plus ‘Monster Ballads’ with its swirling organ intro and the razor-sharp hook of ‘In The Dark’ – both of which feature on the acclaimed LP ‘The Animal Years’, which was released to glowing reviews earlier this year.
