Self-recording songwriter David Karsten Daniels will follow the fear we experienced looking at the cover of last year's Sharp Teeth with the release of a new album called Fear of Flying. The record comes out April 29 via FatCat.

Daniels will avoid his aviation fear by playing a landlocked tour of North America with Nina Nastasia in late April and early May. Before then, he has two weekly residencies, one at Portland's Mississippi Studios and the other at Seattle's Nectar Lounge.
