Jim Ward has had a long association with Australia since touring with At The Drive-In in the now infamous tour of 2001. What might have seemed like a fleeting but eventful entry into the Australian musical psych Jim has returned many times to these shores under a number of musical monikers. Weather as a solo artist, At the Drive-In, Sleepercar or his Texas post-hardcore outfit Sparta Jim has always created a varied palate of music that crosses genre’s and challenges stereotypical assumptions about his music.

In addition to the release of the new album, the band have shared a video for ‘Turquoise Dream’ off of the record.
