M. Ward's "A Wasteland Companion" streaming now at NPR Music




M. Ward's highly anticipated new solo album A Wasteland Companion will be released on April 10, but you can stream the full album now at NPR Music.

In their introduction to the "First Listen," NPR describes M. Ward:

Some musicians write for car stereos; others for laptops, boom boxes or weight-room sound systems. M. Ward writes for beat-up transistor radios, as if he were sending his songs hurtling backward through time and space, to a point where music coexists with a ghostly, almost otherworldly crackle.
