Today's Top Tune: Kevin Morby ‘Javelin’ 

 

Kevin Morby announces his eighth studio album, Little Wide Open, out May 15, and shares its lead single “Javelin.” Produced by The National’s Aaron Dessner, the album is Morby’s most personal and vulnerable work to date — a collection of songs set against tangled highways, small-town backdrops, and the restless pull of American life. On “Javelin,” Morby reflects on love and constant motion, joined by Amelia Meath (Sylvan Esso), whose luminous vocals elevate the track.
