He played a number of dates at the end of ’09 to showcase the new material, and he’s soon to be back on the road. This time around, Rawlings and Co. are set to take their machine up and down the West Coast throughout the month of February.

In the meantime, Rawlings can be heard discussing the new album on wbur.org‘s Here & Now show, which also features snippets of the new tracks, for those who’ve yet to bag the album.

A Friend of a Friend is out!
