Today marks the release of Fruit Bats' tenth full-length album, A River Running to Your Heart. Celebrate the occasion by streaming or purchasing the new album, and with this Adam Willis-directed video for “Sick of This Feeling,” which joins Eric D. Johnson in the middle of a talk therapy session before taking him and his therapist to some fairly unexpected places.

“Over the years there's been a lot of geography in my music, a lot of landscapes,” Johnson says of the new album. “Sometimes the places are real, sometimes they're emotional. I've always liked the idea of songs and albums that exist in a continuum with one another. I'm not talking about some kind of deep series of concept albums, mind you. More like the idea that my songs are all pretty much tributaries of the same river. Which makes a lot of metaphorical sense because my path has been long and winding and often slow and muddy. But always moving towards the sea. I guess you could say this album is the one where I took all that emotional geography and kind of mapped it out.”

Along with the resulting A River Running to Your Heart, you can take in that emotional geography by joining Johnson as he makes his way across the United States and Canada on an extensive tour of North America. Tickets are available now!
