The new Watson Twins record, Fire Songs, comes out on June 24 on Vanguard Records and I, for one, am pretty excited to hear it. The twins will be going on a co-headlining tour with Tim Fite in support of their debut LP and have made the interesting choice of playing both the Music Hall of Williamsburg and it’s little sister, The Mercury Lounge, on July 10 and 11 respectively.
