Back in November 2014, Son Little teased us with a brilliant EP, Things I ForgotMore recently he's opened for Mumford and Sons and enjoyed some national coverage with a mini-set on CBS This Morning. Now it's time for the main course. Anti- Records will release Little's self-titled debut on Oct. 16.

"Lay Down," the album's first single (below), might be a song of the year contender. Son Little said of the track: "I wrote this song lying in bed with my lady, listening to the tea kettle whistle. I think about how complicated our lives are, all the ones and zeros distract us from what we really need and want. Sometimes I just want to take your love and hide."

The album promises 11 more tracks every bit as good as that one. Don't want to wait until October? Catch little on tour opening for Lord Huron at the following dates:
