New Electric President album finished


This is some good news. Electric President, the electro-folk that has sent hearts a-twitter here at Never Learned to Swim, just announced on their website that their new album is finished, and is tentatively slated for a summertime release. Florida duo Ben Cooper and Alex Kane, the latest NLtS darlings, have been working on this, the follow-up to their stunning eponymous effort, which was released in 2006, for thirteen months now. The wait is nearly over.

In addition to album itself, keep your eyes open for a b-sides collection. Any considerations of a b-sides record is perhaps a bit premature, but Cooper says that "once they're done, [we'll] find some way to make them available. Step at a time, step at a time." Be still my heart.

Moreover, there is a badass cover of "Time After Time" by Cyndi Lauper on their website. Follow the link: http://radicalface.com/music/timeaftertime.mp3
