Rival Sons have premiered a new song titled “Bird In The Hand.” This track is from the band’s new album “Darkfighter,” which will be released on June 2.

Vocalist Jay Buchannan commented:

“There’s a lyric in there, ‘Let’s go down to the river where the water runs still and deep, to scatter the ashes of the mess I used to be.’ You can burn through a whole lot of time just trying to find your lane, your realized intention. At some point you accept reincarnation as a waking process. Build, refine and burn again and again and the lyric, ‘A bird in the hand, now that’s a miracle I can believe’ is the immersive commitment to the present.”

In other news, the band have also announced a headlining North American tour. Guitarist Scott Holiday added the following about that:

“SO happy to finally announce our full North America headline tour and have new music to play for you. Expect this tour to comprise of the forthcoming ‘Darkfighter’ album in its entirety, along with familiar songs and a few deeper cuts. We’re working on plans to make it extra special. With a big added bonus of the incredible acts we’re taking with us: The Black Angels, The Record Company and Starcrawler. It’s going to make for a REALLY fantastic night of music!”
