Gary Clark Jr. has announced he's returning with a new album. Called THIS LAND, it's due out March 1 via Warner Bros. Records.
To give us a taste of what's in store, the Austin blues-rock artist has shared a video for the album's title track. The clip was directed by Savanah Leaf and filmed around Clark's home in rural Texas. As you'll witness, it features a young boy grappling with symbols of racism in America.
"I basically just told [Leaf] where I came from and she made a beautiful short film out of it," Clark told Rolling Stone. "Shout out to her, much love. I hope the video and the song together accomplish acceptance and moving forward — feed the babies, teach the babies to love."
You can check out the "This Land" video below.
THIS LAND will arrive as a double-LP vinyl set, as well as on CD and digitally. You can see the album cover above and the tracklist below. The new album follows 2015's The Story of Sonny Boy Slim.
