”Sometimes, truth can’t be explained. But it can be felt, running wild through a song. “I don’t want to tame myself. I want to be wild,” says Langhorne Slim. “If I can continue to refine the wildness but never suffocate or tame it, then I’m on the right path. Because it is a path. I feel it.”

‘The Spirit Moves’ is Langhorne’s newest artistic attempt to refine the wildness. The result is an effervescent collection of his now-signature, cinematic, joyful noise, rooted in folk, soul, and blues. The album marks his second with rocksolid band The Law, and the highly anticipated follow-up to 2012’s critically acclaimed ‘The Way We Move’.

“A mix of soul-shout revival, Americana introspection and the Fifties-evoking jams . . . The Spirit Moves is an artist looking forward through a fresh set of eyes.” – Rolling Stone

“With his trembling lonesome quiver of a voice, Slim has always possessed the ability to explore the lines separating faith and hope, optimism and cynicism, and emotional carnage. The Spirit Moves zeroes in on these in bare existential terms. . . .” – Uncut 8/10

“This is the album that you recommend to all segments of your friends without reservation. One that if you’ve got half a heart, it’s likely to break and pulse and soar.” – No Depression
