Mary Timony — singer, songwriter, and guitar legend — presents the new single “Summer” from Untame the Tiger, her first new solo album in 15 years, and announces more U.S. tour dates. Listen to “Summer” wherever you stream music and order Untame the Tiger on CD or neon pink Peak Vinyl from the Merge store!
Following lead single “Dominoes” and the more stripped-back single “The Guest,” “Summer” sees Mary lean into a more hard-rocking approach before exploding into twin guitar solos at the end, reaffirming her guitar hero reputation. “I wanted it to be a guitar stomper kind of in the vein of The Kinks, Jethro Tull or Elf and have simultaneous guitar solos at the end,” says Mary. “I’m excited to play this one live. Betsy Wright of Ex Hex will be on guitar, and I can’t wait to rock those twin solos with her! I’ll also be joined by David Christian, Chad Molter, and Anna Wilson. They are all such totally killer musicians.” Mary’s headline tour kicks off next month and continues through this summer with newly announced dates in July on sale this Friday, February 2nd, at 10AM local time.
