Typhoon’s 2010 album, Hunger and Thirst, was one of our Best Albums of 2010.   In the aftermath of the life-threatening illness  of leader Kyle Morton, the 11-member band Typhoon has at long last released it’s subsequent album, White Lighter.  The band recently performed a few songs off of the album for Portland’s KINK Radio.  for  Listen in to Young Fathers and hear Typhoon and its lead singer Kyle Morton get his Van Morrison on (along with the now-standard Typhoon group-activities). After, listen to two other songs off the new album, Dreams of Cannibalism and Reed Road.  All bode incredibly well for White Lighter.  At bottom you can stream the fantastic studio versions of two of these songs.  So very good.

The band will head out on tour in early September for an extensive tour in support of White Lighter.  You can find the tour dates, including UCSD and Los Angeles in mid-October, HERE.
