01.17: The Dales drop new EP “Easy Times” at The Troubadour

The Dales will take the stage at The Troubadour on Friday, January 17th to mark the release of their new EP Easy Times, a follow-up to their 2018 debut album Marie. Having introduced themselves as a folk rock tour-de-force near the end of last decade, The Dales enter the 2020s with a decided sense of optimism and a relaxed nature despite the constant goings-on so far this year. At just five tracks long, the positive vibe of Easy Times provides an uplifting thrist-quencher for anyone who finds themselves gasping for some serotonin these days. Easy Times drops on all streaming services on January 10th; you can stream the first single, the title track, below. – Will Sisskind
