The Districts by David McClister
The Districts recorded it at the legendary Sunset Sound studios in Los Angeles.
The Districts have set their fifth studio album Great American Painting for release on February 4th, 2022.
Like so many others, the album will be a reflection of the band’s experiences during lockdown and the pandemic, in particular Rob Grote’s two months spent at a cabin in Washington state.
“While we were there I spent some time driving near all these crazy rivers and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, and I was mesmerized by how those unspoiled landscapes really capture a timeless idea of what America is,” he says.
“I’d just come from taking part in the protests in Philly and getting tear-gassed, and it felt so strange to go between those two extremes. In a way this album is asking, ‘What is the great American painting? Is it police brutality, or is it this beautiful landscape?’ And the truth is it’s all of that.”
