Austin’s stoner/desert rock trio GREENBEARD launched their new EP ‘Onward, Pillager‘ via Denver, Colorado label Sailor Records on December 22nd.
‘Onward, Pillager‘ serves as a teaser for an upcoming, full-length release from GREENBEARD on Sailor Records in 2019. Both releases are produced, recorded, and mixed with Jeff Henson at Red Nova Ranch, in Austin, Texas. The EP is mastered by Alberto De Icaza. The band once again teamed up with long time collaborator Antoine Defarges of Headbang Design, to continue the GREENBEARD tradition of elaborate, striking artwork for all their releases.
The band had this to say about their upcoming EP:
“It’s been great working with Jeff Henson on this EP! Aside from great recording quality, one of Jeff’s strengths that really works for us is his songwriting vision. We are all on the same page as far as rock and roll goes, and Jeff has been able to see our songs and give them a little extra shape to really make them stand out as some banging tunes. Because of this, we are very excited to release ‘Onward, Pillager’ and continue working more with Henson as we start getting things together for our next full length.”
