We're still a few months away from the physical release of the new album from Chicago's Scattered Trees, but we do have a taste of what to expect (if you haven't already bought it digitally) that we can share with you. "Four Days Straight" has been in heavy rotation and powering us through the last few weeks, keeping us aloft even as we continued to doubt warm weather would ever arrive. The songs hopeful buoyancy was just the tonic our souls thirsted for and now that the summer has finally (and oh-so forcefully) arrived we find the song continues to resonate. So does tat make it a song for all seasons? You tell us.

MP3: Scattered Trees "Four Days Straight"

Scattered Trees have no local shows in the near future, but they leave on a U.S. tour next month.
