William Fitzsimmons - Lions

On February 17, William Fitzsimmons will release Lions, his follow-up LP to 2010's well-received Gold In The Shadow. 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), Lions is a career-defining album that explores Fitzsimmons personal transformation over the last few years.The last couple years have been...full (kind of difficult to describe years in a single word). They have been wonderful, painful, long, incredibly brief, and more educational and rewarding than any I've ever lived before. Lions is something I'm terribly proud of and utterly connected to, says Fitzsimmons. In advance of the album, Fitzsimmons partnered with Paste to reveal an acoustic performance of the first track from the album, called Centralia.
