Cub Sport Announce Self-Titled Album

Alt/pop band Cub Sport announce their third studio album Cub Sport today, which will be released on January 18, 2019. The self-titled record will feature lead single "Sometimes" as well as another fourteen new tracks, including collaborations with Mallrat and Cloud Control's Al Wright. The album was primarily recorded and produced by frontman Tim Nelson, including tracks co-produced with Golden Vessel and Calvin Valentine. Cub Sport will be released globally, and available digitally and physically on the band's own label Cub Sport Records (via MGM and Believe).

While previous album BATS captured a very transformative time in Tim's life, chronicling his coming to terms with and embracing his identity, the new album is the product of Tim activating all the lessons learned during the process.

"This record lays me bare but I can't wait to share it because I truly believe it's going to take you somewhere else. The past 12 months has felt like the most transformative year of my life and I've been fortunate enough to have many of you as a part of the journey. This album captures everything you saw happening as well as everything else that was happening that you couldn't see. It hasn't been an easy year but I've grown so much, learned so much and loved so much. This album is about facing inner fears, living your truth, harnessing your power, being yourself, believing in yourself, loving yourself and healing yourself. "Cub Sport" by Cub Sport has grown from love, self-belief and never giving up. This record has completely opened me up to the universe around me and within me, something I hope it will do for you too."- Tim Nelson on the inspiration behind the upcoming album.

Cub Sport (the album) will be the first body of work released by the band since members Tim Nelson and Sam Netterfield's recent marriage, and delves deep into their experiences of self-discovery, learning self-love, being 'out', getting engaged and married, living their truths, as well as navigating and embracing the complex reality of suddenly being very open with who you are with the world. The lead single "Sometimes" has already paved the way for the new album, having been featured on Spotify's US "Indie Pop" & "Singled Out" playlists as well as the cover of Australia/NZ's "New Music Friday" playlist.

The band consists of Tim Nelson (singer/songwriter/producer), Zoe Davis (lead guitar, bass, vocals), Sam "Bolan" Netterfield (keyboards, vocals) and Dan Puusaari (drums). In September 2017, the group released their sophomore album BATS. The deeply personal collection of songs chronicle Tim Nelson's journey of coming out as gay and admitting his love for fellow band member Sam (Bolan) Netterfield. The two are now married. Following sold-out UK and US dates earlier this year, the band had a busy summer on the Australian festival circuit. The recent release of the video for their track "Hawaiian Party" with the Dolan Twins saw the song fly to #18 on the U.S. iTunes Alternative Charts & the band hit #5 on Billboard's "Next Big Sound" chart. The band recently opened for multi-platinum Atlantic recording artist Vance Joy on his Australian arena tour and just wrapped their Fall 2018 U.S. + Canada Tour following.
