Camera Obscura announce a new single, the forthcoming album release of My Maudlin Career, and a worldwide tour.

With John Peel as an early champion, Glasgow’s Camera Obscura are fondly regarded by many as one of the UK’s finest acts; having built up over the years a dedicated following with must-have records and tours throughout Europe, USA, Mexico, Australia and South East Asia. Their 2006 album Let’s Get out of the Country was to prove pivotal for the band, taking them out of the shadows and to long-deserved new heights.

Now Camera Obscura are ready to release the follow-up, My Maudlin Career; their first for their new label 4AD, and fourth overall. After his successful touches on their last record, they returned to Sweden to work again with Swedish producer Jari Haapalainen (Ed Harcourt, Peter, Bjorn & John, The Concretes). His wonderful understanding with the band continues to flourish, again fully realizing not just the potential of Tracyanne Campbell’s songs and remarkable voice, but also the ensemble musicianship of the group as a whole.

My Maudlin Career is out April 20 on 4AD
