Two Gallants’ fifth studio album We Are Undone is out today and available in stores on ATO Records. To celebrate the release, the band will perform the title track on “Late Night with Seth Meyers February 16. Following select sold out shows at intimate venues in New York and San Francisco, the duo will embark on a 50 city tour in North America and Europe. 

Two Gallants’ Adam Stephens (guitar, harmonica, piano and vocals) and Tyson Vogel (drums, guitar and vocals) spent one month recording We Are Undone with engineer Karl Derfler (Tom Waits) at Panoramic House in Northern California. The new album is available on Deluxe Vinyl/CD/Digital in stores, iTunes, Amazon and direct from the band at twogallants.com. This is their second full-length release on the label following 2012’s The Bloom and The Blight.

Stephens and Vogel started making music together at the age of 12 and began performing around San Francisco as Two Gallants in 2002, when they were both 21. Alive Records released the duo’s debut album, The Throes, in 2004 which Pitchfork said “taps into a rusty vein swollen with grief, heartache and violent desperation.” Both Two Gallants’ 2006 album What the Toll Tells and 2007 EP The Scenery of Farewell were released on Saddle Creek.
