Northern Ireland's And So I Watch You From Afar are streaming their forthcoming album Heirs a week before release starting today via The Fader. Hear and share the full album HERE.

ASIWYFA kick off an extensive UK & EU tour with label mate Mylets tomorrow. Please see complete tour dates below.

And So I Watch You From Afar have applied to their fourth album the same rigorous work ethic that has seen them touring nearly non-stop all over the world in recent years -- including less common tour stops like China, Russia, India and Africa. Heirs is both the band's most painstakingly created album as well as its most personal and meaningful. "Its central theme is about the inheritance of ideas," the band says. "In that we're all heirs to other peoples' passion, which in turn inspires ourselves."

Many new lives, new imperatives and invigorated perspectives helped shape the 10-song album borne of over 30 tracks written in prolific isolation spanning over 6 months in the band's Belfast, Northern Ireland home. It's a work of intense focus and adventurous abandon that reaches to the heart of artistic expression.

Heirs will be available everywhere on LP, CD and download on May 4th, 2015 via Sargent House. Pre-orders are available for LP, CD and bundles HERE and digital at iTunes HERE.
