MP3: “True Thrush”
“True Thrush” is the second track to be made available from Dan Deacon’s forthcoming album America out August 28th (North America) / August 27th (Rest of the world) on Domino.
“True Thrush” is Dan Deacon’s anthemic, fist-pumping Summer jam, and America’s real, honest-to-god single. 21st CENTURY HIT MUSIC.
While “Lots” is a good introduction to the album’s aesthetic territory, “True Thrush” is Deacon outdoing himself to craft truly transcendent pop. This is the song we’ve been waiting for him to make.

Dan Deacon will headline the River Rocks series at Pier 84 in New York this coming Thursday, July 12th and play select shows and festivals over the summer, before commencing on an European and North American tour later this year.
