Song Premiere: Anthony D'Amato - "Hank Williams Tune"

Following up his impressive 2010 release Down Wires, Anthony D’Amato plans to release his sophomore album, Paper Back Bones, on May 29. “‘Hank Williams Tune’ is about somebody who has a hard time communicating except through music and books and movies,” D’Amato states. “It’s about the excitement of finding all your cultural touchstones line up with someone else’s, and then figuring out that, at the end of the day, it’s not nearly enough.”
