Punch Brothers Share New Song, ‘My Oh My,’ From Upcoming Album [LISTEN]

The Punch Brothers are giving fans a sneak peek at their upcoming album with the release of their new song 'My Oh My.'

'The Phosphorescent Blues,' which was produced by T Bone Burnett, is set for release on Jan. 27. The band wrote the tracks for the new album during a series of "retreats" last year before joining Burnett to record at Hollywood's Ocean Way Recording.

“We often go to bars after shows or writing sessions, to be around other people for a little while. And I’d see people just like me on their phones, telling people they wish they were there, texting people who really are there. Then a song would come on that somebody likes, and then they see that someone else does too, and maybe they both sing it together, and that moment is spiritual, some shared experience, and they are interacting, in the flesh, with their fellow man. And that’s communion,” Thile says. “Many of the songs on this record dive into that: How do we cultivate beautiful, three-dimensional experiences with our fellow man in this day and age?”

The group is hitting the road for a brief tour of Ireland and United Kingdom before beginning a North American tour on Feb. 20. Ticket information is available at PunchBrothers.com.

‘The Phosphorescent Blues’ is available to pre-order on iTunes, with instant downloads of 'My Oh My,' 'I Blew It Off’ and ‘Julep.’ Pre-orders for CD and vinyl versions (which include four additional tracks) are available via PunchBrothers.com; they come with a full download of the album on release day, as well as the instant downloads.
