Boy in the Bubble's new album The King will be released in late February, with a release party featuring Birdmonster and Girl Band on Friday, February 19 at Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco. The King will not be a typical jewel-case CD, but an illustrated book of lyrics with a download code inside. The King is as diverse as watchers of Boy in the Bubble have come to expect, with Beatlesy love songs, Blood on the Tracks-era stories, Decemberists-style epics, southern rock stomps, and tender acoustic ballads.

Praise for BITB's last release:

“Boy in the Bubble play an arresting game of musical hopscotch…Alternating between soft and sighing, loud and sloppy, [singer Josh Seidenfeld] knows exactly where he's going—and he's intent on taking us with him. Call Songs From the City on the Sun indie-rock at a burlesque show. Call it David Bowie on the verge of a meltdown. Call it what you like, but don't miss this Sun set.”

– Performing Songwriter
