On May 13, 2014 Walter Martin of the Walkmen will release his debut solo album 'We're All Young Together' (Family Jukebox). "I'm calling it a family record and I tried to fill it with warmth and humor because that's the kind of art I like - stuff that makes everyone feel welcome," he says. "To me it's a serious record disguised as a not serious record."

The album features guest appearances by Karen O and Nick Zinner of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Matt Berninger of the National, Alec Ounsworth of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Kat Edmonson, The Walkmen's Hamilton Leithauser and Matt Barrick, and more.

Martin, multi-instrumentalist in the Walkmen, conceived of 'We're All Young Together' around the time the Walkmen were finishing their 2012 album 'Heaven' and his wife was pregnant with their first child. With fatherhood on the horizon, Martin felt it was time to challenge himself a bit. He had co-written songs for the band since they had formed in 2000 and now it was time to write something for himself.

"I began to imagine a record I really wanted to hear: something new and original that captured the essence of early rock 'n' roll - innocent but mischievous, romantic but funny, and unabashedly sweet," he says. "It wasn't that I wanted to write songs to suit my new situation as a parent, it was more that parenthood made relevant writing the kind of songs I've always loved most."

Among the album's subjects: the virtues of rattlesnakes ("Rattlesnakes"), the not-so-surprising similarities of siblings ("Hey Sister"), and the distinguishing features of each Beatles band member ("The Beatles (When Ringo Shook His Mop)").

Phil Ek (Built To Spill, The Shins, Fleet Foxes) mixed two of the tracks and all the record's artwork was designed by Marcellus Hall, a renowned children's book illustrator and artist whose work has appeared in The New Yorker and Time.

First single off the upcoming EP "123 Water"

Blue Sky

Buffalo Rodeo’s upcoming EP "123 Water" dances a line between classical ethereal sounds reminiscent of 70’s bands like Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac and modern psychedelic variations like Mac Demarco and Tame Impala. A considerable maturation from their 2013 release “Home Videos,” Buffalo Rodeo strives to combine tight rhythms and ambient melodies with expressive vocal harmonies on their newest release.

Always Want It Back

This is the 1st single off my 1st EP, 'Guest At Home'.

Lyrics: 
I got love
And it's burning a whole right through my vest
With nowhere to go
I'm loving alone 'cause I love myself best
I sure hope I feel hopeful
I'm done moping I guess
Put my thoughts on repeat and play to the beat
why do I get so obsessed

Alright
I'm alright
It's alright
We're alright
That's enough insight
Shine a light on this right now

Your dead right
I've been dead wrong
dead stop, dead lock, dead end
The tightrope I've been walking on
has been slacking off again

Alright
I'm alright
It's alright
We're alright
That's enough insight
Shine a light on this right now

(Solo)

Alright
I'm alright
It's alright
We're alright
That's enough insight
Shine a light on this right now


Alright

'Elodie' is out on 18 March 2016
