Our fave singer/songwriter, the Toronto-based Jerry Leger, has released his new single and has announced a deluxe edition of his very very fine album ‘Time Out for Tomorrow’, which first came out in 2019.
His latest single “Jumped in the Humber” will be included as a flexi-disc with the deluxe edition as well as a limited edition sticker and poster.
Leger will also be issuing the previously digital only album “Songs from the Apartment”, a surprise acoustic album released in March 2020 after the Covid-19 lockdowns began to roll out. The album consists of home recorded demos Leger made over some years but only 300 will be pressed and on red vinyl, so get your pre-orders in here. Trust me on this, Jerry is the realest of the real deals.
Both albums are scheduled for March 26 release.
