Pete Yorn update

Singer-songwriter Pete Yorn's 'Rooftop' EP marks the 20th anniversary of his critically acclaimed and seminal debut album musicforthemorningafter. 

Arriving May 5, it includes four tracks: “Rooftop,” an unreleased outtake from the musicforthemorningafter sessions and three live versions of tracks from the album including Smiths cover “Panic”, “Life On A Chain” and “Lose You”, the latter of which is delivered on his childhood piano.

Yorn says of the album’s anniversary, "We made it in garages in California, in Van Nuys and Culver City...I just made music that I liked and I knew that there were no guarantees of where it would get me... but twenty years later I am really proud of the impact the record has had and it still carries a deep emotional resonance for me.”
