Recorded November 2009 while holed up in Oxford, MS. Small-town Hymns-American Aquarium's fourth-won't do much to shake neither the Springsteen or Ryan Adams associations, though Hymns has more in common with Nebraska and Heartbreaker than Born to Run and Faithless Street. The record was produced and engineered by Andrew Radcliffe (Will Hoge, The Damnwells) and will be the band's second for Last Chance Records.
