Megafaun Announces New Album and Tour Dates

It’s only been a year since their last record, but the bearded freak-folksters of North Carolina’s Megafaun will release their new album, a self-titled LP, via Hometapes on September 20. Recorded at April Base, the Eau Claire, Wisconsin studio owned by their former bandmate Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), the band produced the album themselves with some help from BJ Burton.

Below, check out a trailer for the album, as well as the group’s tour dates.
