The Shins have confirmed a March 2012 release for their fourth album ‘Port Of Morrow.’ It will be released jointly on James Mercer's own Aural Apothecary label and Columbia Records.
‘Port Of Morrow’ was recorded in Los Angeles and Portland over the course of 2011 with Mercer as usual handling all songwriting duties, lead vocals and the majority of instrumentation. The record was produced by Greg Kurstin, mixed by Rich Costey and the cover art created by Jacob Escobedo. An exact release date as well as touring plans will be announced shortly at theshins.com. As with the dates earlier this year, the upcoming tour will see James Mercer leading a Shins lineup of Yuuki Matthews (bass), Jessica Dobson (guitar), Richard Swift (keyboards) and Joe Plummer (drums).
