William Fitzsimmons Premieres Video for “Lions”

0
0

William Fitzsimmons has premiered the video for his new track "Lions.”

This is the second track off his recently released fifth studio album, Lions.

This simplistic, dreamy video features only Fitzsimmons and his guitar in a sun-soaked workshop.

Fitzsimmons commented on its simplicity: "The older I get, the more of a sucker I am for strong, simple flavors," he says. "There's something cool (about) seeing if you can make something fly without too much makeup."

Fitzsimmons will embark on a North American tour in support of Lions, kicking off next week with two New York shows on April 15 at Littlefield in Brooklyn and on April 16 at the NYU Skirball Center for Performing Arts.

Watch the video below:

Along the way Fitzsimmons will stop in major markets like Nashville, Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago and play the Houston Free Press Summer Fest on June 1 before ending his tour on June 15 in Cambridge, MA at The Sinclair.

Lions was produced by Chris Walla (guitarist for Death Cab For Cutie with previous production credits with Tegan and Sara, The Decemberists and The Postal Service among others) at Hall of Justice in Seattle. On this record, Fitzsimmons explores his personal changes over the years since 2011's release Gold In The Shadow.
