In July this year we wrote about the newest folk supergroup on the scene Tired Pony made up of Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol fame, REM’s Peter Buck and various other musicians from bands such as The Editors and Belle & Sebastian. Their first album, The Place We Ran From, has proven so successful that Lightbody and Buck have announced they will be will be heading into the studio early next year to record the follow up.

“We’re going to tour the states at the end of this month and we’ll go into the studio to make the new album next year,” Lightbody told Spinner. “Snow Patrol will be recording the new album from November to the end of January and when it’s finished I’ll go in and record the new Tired Pony album in February.”

The second album will have “more of a bluesy kind of feel” according to the boys and will most likely be recorded in Nashville or Memphis.
