After everyone fell in love with The Rhumb Line a few years back, Syracuse darling’s Ra Ra Riot are coming back to current as they prepare to drop some much anticipated new tracks on the upcoming album The Orchard.
It’s set to drop on August 24th via Barsuk and features Death Cab for Cutie’s Chris Walla and Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij’s mixing talents with production by the band and Andrew Maury.
