HOPE SANDOVAL AND THE WARM INVENTIONS ANNOUNCE NORTH AMERICAN TOUR FIRST LIVE SHOWS IN EIGHT YEARS IN SUPPORT OF BRAND NEW ALBUM THROUGH THE DEVIL SOFTLY (SEPT 29)

NEW TRACK ‘”TROUBLE” AVAILABLE NOW

“There’s good news: Sandoval is back. A lovely, 11-track collection of narcotic, folk tunes centered by Sandoval’s breathy, irresistible seductive croon.”
- Rolling Stone

“If you’ve been waiting for another full-length from front woman Hope Sandoval in the long years since her 2001 album with the Warm Inventions, Bavarian Fruit Bread, today is your happy day!”
- Entertainment Weekly

“Hypnotizing vocals — along with a spine-tingling, otherworldly sound that comes on like a warm opium dream.. Hope Sandoval is back.”
- Spin

For Hope Sandoval fans, the wait is finally over. With her first full-length album in over eight years, Sandoval is ready to take her storied live show to intimate concert venues across North America. Hope takes center stage alongside My Bloody Valentine’s Colm Ó Cíosóig and Irish band Dirt Blue Gene. Through The Devil Softly, her second album with Warm Inventions partner Colm Ó Cíosóig, is a rich brocade of pastoral meditations that resonate with the kind of restrained yet provocative intimacy that only these two artists can provide. The dichotomy between darkness and light, the space between inspiration and the manifestation of thought, is where Hope Sandoval’s music and lyrics catch fire.

Opening track “Blanchard” was met with rapt attention from journalists in the US and UK alike. Pitchfork predicts, “Judging by the track ‘Blanchard,’ we’re in for another album of sexy, gauzy, reverbed-out slowcore, with Sandoval’s voice floating above the layers of softly strummed guitar like a desert apparition.” NME remarks that the track “has immersed us once more in Hope’s world of bleak folk, gothic country and lush psychedelia.” Today we debut the new single “Trouble.”
