Chicago rockers Ratboys have announced that they’re taking their talents to New West Records for their forthcoming sixth LP Singin’ to an Empty Chair, which was co-produced by Chris Walla and is set to arrive on February 6. First single “Anywhere” is an uptempo, energetic cut with wailing guitars and a gnarly drum groove providing the backdrop for vocalist Julia Steiner.
“A big, overarching theme of this record is my attempt to document my experience being estranged from a close loved one,” Steiner said. “The goal is to update this person on what’s been going on in my life and to try to bridge that impasse and reach out a hand into the void.”
