The Blakes are poised to release their fourth LP, Souvenir, on October the 13th and have once again opted to stick with their true indie roots by going the self-release route. Of course, this isn’t really a surprise considering the Seattle based outfit consisting of Garnet Keim (vox/guitar), Snow Keim (vox/bass) and Bob Husak (drums) has only used a label twice, for the re-release of the LP The Blakes (2006) and 2007’s exclusive EP Streets, since they began nearly a decade ago.
Additional details, including the tracklist are still forthcoming — give ’em time, they are handling everything for pete’s sake! In the meantime, you can check out the album’s first single, “Basket”, below…
