The band Smalltown Poets released Under the New Sun on October 16. The 7-track album is now available on iTunes, CD Baby, and on digital outlets. Smalltown Poets will release a physical CD version shortly.

Smalltown Poets, "All five original Poets recorded these tunes together, and as the songs took shape, we couldn't help remarking to ourselves, "Hey! This sounds like Smalltown Poets!" The whole journey, from brainstorming to recording demos to final mixes, fit like a glove, and we're really looking forward to you hearing what we've come up with."

This was how Smalltown Poets came up with the album title Under the New Sun, "The album title is taken from an old Villanelle (yes, that's a previous incarnation of Smalltown Poets) song titled May Day. The song itself isn't on our EP, but that particular lyric - "under the new sun" - seems to sum up many of the themes of the new project: death and rebirth, renewal, restoration, resurrection."
