String Cheese Incident will be releasing their newest album, Believe, later this week on April 14th. The album, which will be available for purchase on Pledge Music, has been in the works since 2015, when the band rented a house in Sedona and wrote and recorded the first takes of many of the tracks of Believe. Dubbed the Sedona Sessions, access to demos from that time in addition to a handful of other SCI goodies are available when pre-ordering via Pledge Music before the album is officially dropped on Friday.

This latest album features nine tracks, including one featuring Bonnie Paine of Elephant Revival (on “My One and Only”). Many of the songs have made their debut over the last few years. Of the songs off Believe, only one, “So Much Fun,” has not been played yet by String Cheese Incident in a live setting, while many were added to Cheese’s rotation during their Winter Carnival tour in March.

Ahead of the official release, bassist Keith Moseley interviewed with AllMusic about this latest album. AllMusic also premiered the first full stream of Believe, letting eager Cheese fans preview that album before Friday. You can mosey over to AllMusic to read the full interview with Keith and listen to the album stream below.
