Slaughter Beach, Dogs new album Crying, Laughing, Waving, Smiling finds Jacob Ewald hitting his songwriting stride. A decade into steadily releasing records through Slaughter Beach, Dog and Modern Baseball, Ewald spent hundreds of hours over the past few years to listen purposefully, diving deep into the worlds of Randy Newman, Tom Waits, Neil Young and many other classic guys that he hadnt spent ample time with. Ewald also spent a similar amount of hours meticulously assembling a band fit for these new songs.

The result is Crying, Laughing, Waving, Smiling – a timeless record, and Slaughter Beach, Dogs finest – self produced and capturing Ewald and the band at the height of their powers. Ewalds eye for detail is on display, Crying, Laughing, Waving, Smiling is filled with gorgeous imagery and vivid worlds are built within each song.
