We imagine that after twenty years in music, a musician might get a few songs stuck in his/her head. Thus, the aptly named Song In My Head will be released by bluegrass-influenced jammers, String Cheese Incident.
The album comes nine years after their last official studio release, One Step Closer. In the interim, SCI has been mainly focused on touring, with most of the band’s members involved in various side projects along the way.
Here’s the official statement from the SCI website:
Nine years after their last official studio release, The String Cheese Incident have returned to the studio in their hometown of Boulder, Colorado and emerged with their strongest album to-date.
For their fifth studio effort, SCI enlisted the help of producer Jerry Harrison (Talking Heads). The result – Song In My Head – contains 10 road-tested fan favorites and finds the band hitting a new creative stride. The album will be available online and in stores (on CD and 180g Vinyl) on April 29, 2014 and also marks The String Cheese Incident’s 20th anniversary as a band.
“The coolest part of this album is that, in the end, it really sounds like us–maybe more so than any of the other albums that we’ve done.” – Bill Nershi
