BC Camplight is the project of Brian Christinzio, has released his new album A Sober Conversation today via Bella Union. The LP documents the last two years of his life, finally confronting a shocking childhood trauma while embracing sobriety.BC Camplight has an extensive fall UK/EU tour featuring his biggest headline shows to date including performances at the Roundhouse in London and the O2 Apollo in Manchester.

Brian describes final album preview track “Bubbles In The Gasoline,” out today, as “a much-needed break.” There’s savage humour in his words, but also an upbeat state of mind. “Rather than wake up expecting something awful will happen, I’m waking up, and I don’t know what will happen, but that’s okay. I can’t keep using setbacks as excuses to extend the self-perpetuating myth that I’m prone to disaster.”

The artist’s 2005 debut was backed by musicians who would eventually join The War On Drugs, who he went on to perform live with as well as guest-starring on Sharon Van Etten’s album Epic. “I had spent 30 years being terrified to open that door, and afraid of the price I’d pay once I had. I’ve opened the door. To some extent this album is what was on the other side. I hope it helps me but this album is also for everyone that is having trouble finding their bravery, finding themselves.”
