Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness has shared his new track, "High Dive," today with BuzzFeed. The song is from his forthcoming self-titled album, out October 14 on Vanguard Records. BuzzFeed has also featured Andrew in a profile on their site. 

“High Dive” emerged from Andrew's recording sessions with Mike Viola. “‘The song asks the question ‘If I had never gotten sick, where would I be?’” he says. “My illness put a lot into perspective for my wife (then girlfriend) and I. With ‘High Dive’ I imagined what it would have been like if we’d split up and she’d moved on. In a universal sense, it's about letting someone go and realizing you were wrong, but it's too late.” The song buoys McMahon’s gentle tenor, slowly building from a spare composition with a snapping, driving beat.

AMITW's first single, "Cecilia and the Satellite" about Andrew's newborn daughter debuted at number 4 on the Spotify Viral Chart and is still in the top 10. His full length album, Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, will be released this fall as his debut for Vanguard Records. The striking images on the album and single covers were created by Jimmy Marble. McMahon will also play a series of headline shows across the US beginning October 14th. All current tour dates are listed below.
