Ever since forming in 2008 and releasing their debut album, 2012s My Father and the Hunter, two-time JUNO award-winning alternative group The Strumbellas have steadily released follow-ups containing every ounce of stomping, hand-clapping, alt-country gusto, from 2013s We Still Move on Dance Floors to 2016s Hope to 2019s Rattlesnake. Theyll soon round the corner with a brand-new fifth studio album, Part Time Believer, a collection that signals The Strumbellas grand return and rebirth.Now with Jimmy Chauveau on board as lead vocalist, The Strumbellas spent the last four years writing, recording, and whittling 50 songs down to 12. Honed by producers Ben Allen (Gnarls Barkley, Kaiser Chiefs), Keith Varon (Machine Gun Kelly), Stevie Aiello (30 Seconds To Mars), and Dave Schiffman (RHCP, The Killers), Part Time Believer continues The Strumbellas long-standing tradition of blending anthemic, brightly coloured compositions with yearning, contemplative lyrics.I think people often feel like things are escaping them, or theyre trying to grab on to something happiness, gratitude, professional or personal goals and for some reason, they just cant get there, says David Ritter, who handles piano, organ, percussion, and vocals. Even if they get the thing they want, it doesnt feel the way they thought it would. A lot of these songs are about trying to, like, figure out why were all feeling this way, and how we can find more peace in our lives.
