Micah P Hinson's new LP, Micah P Hinson And The Red Empire Orchestra, is set for release on July 14. Hinson will tour in support of the album, too.
The follow-up to ...And The Opera Circuit comes after Hinson took a year off in his native Austin, Texas to recover from touring pains. A letter from producer John Congleton (Explosions In The Sky, The Paper Chase) prompted him to begin recording again:
“This letter pulled me out of the rut I had found myself in. Once I got this letter, something felt right and I knew the calling was there.”
The result is ...And The Red Empire Orchestra, of which Hinson says: "I find myself ready to take on the world again, and show them what I have up my sleeve".

I was at the Hoxton Hall gig he did a couple of months which was just outstanding, barely 50 people in the room and he played his heart out for over two hours, seriously moving at times. And "someone" has told me that his new album is pretty much his best, well worth getting and seeing live as many times as you can.
and where might i get tickets for these shows?
...
I love this man. His show at the Union Chapel was beyond flawless. He's barely done a bad song to date.
i was in a big huff at the union chapel show
but it was nice when he proposed to his girlfriend.
he is brilliant
brilliant songwriter
brilliant voice
brilliant live
should be appreciated more.
