All-Star Group Featuring Noah Gunderson, Matthew Logan Vasquez & Others Release New Single + Announce Tour

Nine Mile Records has announced the release of the self-titled debut album from the inspired new all-star collective known as Glorietta. GLORIETTA arrives everywhere on Friday, August 24.

Glorietta was born out of Delta Spirit main man Matthew Logan Vasquez's desire to collaborate with some of his closest musical friends, among them Noah Gundersen, Kelsey Wilson, David Ramirez, Jason Robert Blum, and GRAMMY® Award-winner Adrian Quesada. The band officially came together last year over the course of a nine-day recording session in a rented house in Glorieta, NM, just outside of Santa Fe. With Vasquez as the hub, all involved were connected in one way or another, some old friends, others meeting for the very first time. For nine long days, tape ran constantly as the new family of collaborators developed a wide-ranging passel of creative ideas and songs into a unique and singular vision. The players were joined midway through the sessions by the one and only Nathaniel Rateliff, who drove straight through the night to join the party (and lend vocals to the LP's "I Know"). The result of their labor is GLORIETTA, an extraordinary melding of six one-of-a-kind voices that add up to a distinctive and truly special debut album.

Rolling Stone unveiled Glorietta's first track, "Heatstroke," last week, calling it "the soundtrack to a Hatch chile and tequila-fueled therapy session in the snow-capped wilderness." Today marks the world premiere of the LP's electrifying "Golden Lonesome." Additional tracks will be unveiled in the weeks leading up to the album's release.

LISTEN TO "GOLDEN LONESOME"

"When Matt invited us down to Glorieta, he asked each of us to bring a tune or two," says Noah Gundersen. "The day I was supposed to fly down, I figured I should probably try and throw something together. I had just split up with someone I really cared about, for the second time (it never really seems to stick until the second time) and I was having a bit of a meltdown. I almost considered cancelling my flight. But instead I wrote this song and then called a Lyft to the airport."

Glorietta will celebrate their eponymous debut with an epic U.S. live schedule, highlighted by festival performances, intimate showcases, and a full-scale headline tour set to get underway October 5 at the legendary Troubadour in West Hollywood, CA.
