Stream Alabama Shakes’ spohomore album, Sound & Color

Alabama Shakes, an American roots band will release their sophomore album Sound & Color through ATO Records on April 21st and in anticipation, the album is streaming in its entirety through NPR.org.

The second album will arrive three years after their Grammy Award nominated debut record, Boys & Girls and is one of the most anticipated albums of the year. The band, however, admits that they are feeling pressure but according frontwoman Brittany Howard, “We took our time to write this record, and I’m really glad we did. We were able to sit down and think about what’s exciting to us, explore all the things we wanted to on our first album. This record is full of genre-bending songs—it’s even harder now when people ask, ‘What kind of band are you?’ I have no clue.”

Album pre-orders are still going on. Watch the band perform their new single, “Future People” at Coachella this last weekend and the tracklisting for Sound & Color below.
