The Delines

Dear friends of Richmond Fontaine and Willy Vlautin,

We are pleased to announce the release of The Delines debut 7" single The Oil Rigs at Night. The Delines is a new project from Willy featuring members of The Damnations, The Decemberists, and Richmond Fontaine. The Oil Rigs at Night is a limited edition of 500 hand-numbered records and will be out April 20th for Record Store Day. The single includes two exclusive tracks unavailable anywhere else and not for download. Please pick a copy up to support your local record shop.

The Delines will be heading over to Europe for their first ever tour in June. Expect to hear most of the album Colfax plus a lot of surprises. You can pre-order Colfax now from Decor Records to ship to you on release (UK on April 28, US in May). The Delines website will be up and running soon and you will be able to purchase there as well. To hear a sample track please visit The Delines Facebook page.

Willy's fourth novel The Free was released in February and has received great reviews (look for one next weekend in the New York Times!). Thanks to everyone who came out to see him in bookstores, libraries and bars across the UK, Ireland, and the US. You can still buy signed copies of The Free on Willy's website and also at Decor Records (UK and Europe).
