Overview
- Matsson announced the album on Tuesday and confirmed Just Beyond Endless Mountain will be released October 9 on the Anti- label with an 11-song tracklist.
- He issued the new single “Deliver Me From Trying” the same day and released a bucolic video shot in the Swedish countryside to accompany it.
- Matsson says the record grew from moving back to Dalarna, studying local field recordings and old ways of life, and that the material feels more like him than anything he has made before.
- A fall North American tour has been scheduled to support the record, with cross-country dates set to follow the album’s October release.
- The announcement marks a clear musical shift from the American-influenced folk and blues that shaped his recent years toward fiddle-led Swedish folk; Dalarna’s strong local traditions helped shape the songs and could change how he arranges and performs the material live.
