Long Odds Announce The Dry Land, Share New Song “Faorah”

Long Odds, Adam Elliott’s post-Times New Viking band, announce The Dry Land and share the new song “Faorah.”

Adam Elliott may be back in extremely exciting Times New Viking mode, but he is not putting Long Odds on hold. The post-TNV project has a new record lined up, and it arrives as a concise follow-up to 2022’s Fine Thread.

The Dry Land is due out in July, with a release date set for 7/24. Long Odds recorded the album in a single day last June, working with Philip Reed Hunter and the band’s own Joseph Anthony Camerlengo behind the boards. That compressed process fits the project’s low-key, efficient profile, though the result is not presented as some grand reset. It feels more like Elliott continuing to refine a separate outlet while another part of his musical life gets its own resurgence.

Alongside the album announcement comes “Faorah,” a brief new track that leans into an easy, unforced warmth. It is the kind of song that makes the passage of time audible in the best way, with Elliott sounding less pressed than he once might have. If Times New Viking carried a certain voltage, Long Odds appears content to move at a steadier clip.
