The Nashville-based trio Fairground Saints (Elijah Edwards, Meg McAllister, and Mason Van Valin) released a new song, “California” on Friday (Jan. 25). The track, which is available now on all digital retailers and streaming services, will be featured on their upcoming new EP, due out this Spring on Sony Music Nashville.
“We’ve always written our own songs, but this time our producer and good friend Marshall Altman gave us this song and from first listen we were hooked,” said the band. “It felt tailor made for us…Almost as if it was born out of our own personal experience. It’s quintessential California imagery and it’s heartfelt melody felt like home to us and we’re so happy to be able to bring the song to life.”
“California” comes on the heels of the release of “Somewhere Down the Line,” which was the first music released under the group’s global development deal with Sony Music Nashville and Sony-owned distribution and digital marketing arm The Orchard. The trio first formed in 2015 in Santa Barbara, and have already amassed millions of streams from tracks from their self-titled debut.
