Phosphorescent, aka Matthew Houck has finally returned to the studio following an exhaustive 18-month jaunt in support of his critically acclaimed 2010 LP, Here’s to Taking it Easy. The result is Muchaco, his seventh studio album, available March 18 though Dead Oceans.

Album taster Song for Zula, streaming above, is a defiant, country-tinged affair: all reverberating beats and lush, subtle orchestration – a perfect aperitif.
